Pick Cider for The Holidays

By Michelle McGrath | November 10, 2019 |

Thanksgiving is one of the biggest weeks of the year for cider, and November and December is a time to shine! We are once again offering members free promotional materials as a membership benefit. All print material orders will include tabloid-sized Thanksgiving posters and generic holiday/Christmas double-sided table tents. 

  • Just need a logo? Please find free marketing vectors and images here. Be sure to read our guidelines of usage. Pro tip: If you have a really great image, layer a vector Pick Cider file on top and create something special. If you need to get an event up quickly, just use one of the raster image logos!
  • Supplies are limited, so place your order as quickly as possible. Click here to order.
  • We will also be pushing events and special releases again. Please let us know about your events and seasonal ciders with this form here.
  • Have a recipe or other seasonal media that features your cider? Send us the link at marketing@Ciderassociation.org.
  • Check out our dressed for the season PickCider.com!

Your membership must be current for us to ship you materials, pitch you in articles, or re-share your social media campaigns. Thanks for logging in to ciderassociation.org to renew if your membership is due. 

Looking forward to sharing the cider word this holiday season!
