Apple trees on the Front Range have produced more fruit this year than many people can handle, and a Colorado hard cider brewery wants to use that surplus in a community collaboration brew.

Stem Ciders put the call out on Instagram a few weeks ago and has been busy collecting apples from homeowners ever since.

People can either pick and deliver their apple donation, or they can have a team from Stem Ciders come out and do the work for them.  In exchange, the donor gets free drinks, Stem Ciders gift cards and the satisfaction of knowing their apples didn't go to waste.

A production slowdown due to less frequent shipments of apple juice from the Pacific Northwest and Michigan has allowed Stem Ciders workers time to go out and pick apples.

The first few weeks of picking has yielded a wide variety of apples, and the finished product will be unique.
