A Little About The Cider Production Building…

In 2013 Kelly bought a commercially zoned property in downtown Tumalo with he intention of taking his cider making to the next level. When thinking about where the cider could be made in larger batches, renting an industrial space just didn’t sit well. Kelly wanted a place to remind him of the love, intention and good energy that he wanted to put into the cider. He didn’t want to just hire someone to build a cidery either. He wanted it to be a project in which many people could participate and learn. Friends and family came from all over and worked some long, dirty, but fulfilling hours building and creating new friendships. Contractors and businesses around town offered their knowledge and time to support. Although the cidery is just beginning to flow, the community has shown immense support through the whole process.

The Bend Cider House is an interesting and green structure in that the walls are made of pumice-crete, a “green” resource coming from our local volcanic lava and pioneered by the ancient Romans. The roof is a living roof design that has the potential for sanitary water catchment. The building design focuses on thermodynamics and features large south facing windows to help harness the suns abundant energy. Solar and wind energy are future plans for the building and Kelly hopes it will be an example of realistic commercial development in and around Central Oregon.

The energy, passion and drive Kelly has put into building the Bend cidery is just the beginning of what is to come. “I am really excited to see the Bend Cider Co. grow up with such an amazing community backing it, we feel so loved and supported already!”
