South Hill Cider celebrates Finger Lakes terroir by crafting distinctive ciders from hand-foraged wild apples, abandoned orchards, and heirloom varieties. Located four miles from downtown Ithaca near Buttermilk Falls State Park, they offer farm-to-table food, guided tastings, drinks by the glass, house-smoked meat, sandwiches with gluten-free and vegetarian options, and stunning views across Cayuga Lake Valley. They grow apples, host music and events, with hiking and camping available.
