What Is Independent Living?

Individuals enjoying an independent lifestyle in senior living communities enjoy convenient access to dining, beautification, entertainment, and more. They can still live independently while being able to obtain assistance when needed.

Flavors of fall come alive at Mayer Brothers Cider Mill

Flavors of fall come alive at Mayer Brothers Cider Mill

Nothing says fall like colorful leaves and freshly brewed apple cider. The place to get that wonderful autumn beverage is the Mayer Brothers Cider Mill. Step inside, and the fragrances of apples and cinnamon will make you wish fall lasted all year long!  One of the Buffalo area’s longstanding traditions, the cider business was founded by family patriarch Jacob Mayer. Mayer was a steeple builder by trade but bought an apple-pressing mill in 1852 to serve local farmers and their families in the West Seneca area. Farmers could bring apples from their orchards to the mill to be pressed into cider. A barrelful would stay sweet for a few weeks and then turn to hard cider that would last all winter.
