By David Rettig

AMANA, Iowa- You`ll find everything from apple sauce to apple strudel in the Amana Colonies for their first Apfelfest (Applefest) on September 26, 2015. The historic seven villages will be featuring all things apple on this special day with apple cider pressing, live music, food samples, special foods in restaurants and food shops, and more.

The village of Homestead (one of the seven Amana villages) is planning special events in the village apple orchard that are designed to treat all five senses. This event is a great family outing as there will be hands on activates for the youngsters including story tellers and apple bobbing.
