Cider mills are often associated with autumn and fall harvest festivals. You may find other apple-based products there.
The term "cider mill" combines "cider," derived from the Old French "cisdre," and "mill," from the Latin "molina," meaning a grinding device. The etymology reflects the process of grinding apples to make cider. The term describes the location where cider is produced from apples.
