"We didn't know what would work. We planted anyway."
Discover why craft cider from Blackshire Farms tastes completely different from commercial cider. While mass-produced ciders use apple juice concentrate, water, and artificial flavors for quick production, Blackshire Farms creates authentic craft hard cider using real apple juice and traditional fermentation methods just like fine wine.

The result? A complex, aged cider with a full bouquet of flavors that develops over one to two years. Located just 25 minutes from Sioux Falls, Blackshire Farms brings traditional cider-making artistry to Southwest Minnesota.

Learn why aged, small-batch craft cider offers depth and authenticity that one-dimensional commercial products simply can't match.

For Ryan, it's not just construction. It's craftsmanship, leadership, and problem-solving under pressure. Every detail matters, every inch counts, and every day demands the same mindset: lead from the front and never ask your team to do something you wouldn't do yourself.
