Join Nebraska Game and Parks and Glacial Till Vineyard in raising a glass for conservation!

We're excited to introduce Slowpoke Cider, a limited-edition tangerine cider inspired by Nebraska's state reptile: the ornate box turtle. For every six-pack sold, $1 goes back to Game and Parks for wildlife conservation and education efforts across the state.

Join us for a release party 6 to 8 p.m. Oct. 18 at Glacial Till Cider House and Tasting Room in Ashland. During the party, guests can learn turtle trivia, meet live ornate box turtles, chat with wildlife experts and explore exhibits that dive into Nebraska’s ecosystems. Guests must be at least 21 years of age.
