Celebrate the end of the 2024 riding season by joining the Harrisburg Bicycle Club and the St. John’s Lutheran Church by riding through the rolling terrain of Perry and Juniata Counties of Central Pennsylvania. This no frills event will have maps and cue sheets, but there are no sags, official stops, nor road markings.
Before or after the ride, see and learn how apple butter, a Pennsylvania tradition, is made. Don’t forget to purchase freshly made apple butter.
All proceeds from the Barner’s Church Apple Butter Boil go directly to local communities! Besides jars of delicious Apple Butter, there are also crafts, soups, sandwiches, desserts, home-made ice cream and drinks you can purchase.
