The Apple Thief

This one belongs to the whole team. 🏅

A huge thank you to Cam, our production crew Jordy, Jordy and Glen, who put in so much work behind the scenes, and to every single member of The Apple Thief team who plays a part in what we do.

Winning Champion Cider is incredibly special, but even more special is knowing the people and hard work behind it.

We’re a small team from Batlow, and we couldn’t be prouder. 🍎❤️

🐄🎨 PAINT & SIP WITH TANYA IS BACK AT THE APPLE THIEF! 🍎🥂

We’re heading back to The Apple Thief in Batlow for another fabulous creative afternoon — and this time, we’re switching gears!

On Sunday 27th September at 1pm, we’ll be painting my very gorgeous cow — full of personality, colour and plenty of opportunity to make her completely your own! 🐄💕

Come along, grab a cider, pick up a paintbrush and join us for a relaxed afternoon of painting, sipping, laughing and creating.

🎨 Sunday 27 September | 1pm
🍎 The Apple Thief, Batlow
⏰ 2.5–3 hours

🖌️ Absolutely everything you need to paint is provided — just turn up ready to have some fun!

And while you paint, you can sample your way through the fabulous range of Apple Thief ciders and enjoy one of their delicious grazing plates.

No painting experience needed — I’ll guide you through the process step-by-step, and as always, going a little rogue is highly encouraged!

So grab a friend (or a few!) and come and join us for another fun-filled afternoon at The Apple Thief.

Cider + cows + creativity... what better way to spend a Sunday afternoon? 🐄🍎🎨🥂​

There's no better time to explore the Snowy Valleys!
Whether you're chasing outdoor adventures or looking for a cosy escape from the winter chill, there's something for everyone.

Discover the Snowy Valleys Sculpture Trail, meet the friendly animals at Crafty Cider on your way to Tumbarumba or just take a scenic drive through our beautiful region, wander the walking tracks at Adelong Falls, or enjoy a picnic beside the Tumut River and beyond.

Step inside Beyond the Front Line, located beneath the Batlow RSL, and uncover the fascinating stories and history of Batlow and our war heros. When hunger strikes, call into the The 'new' Batlow Hotel for a hearty counter meal and warm country hospitality.

And while you're out and about these school holidays, be sure to stop in at The Inconvenience Store in Batlow. Browse a wonderful range of local produce, handcrafted gifts, gourmet treats and unique treasures, and take home your own little piece of Batlow.

Make a day of it—or better still, stay a little longer and discover why the Snowy Valleys is such a special place to visit in winter. 🍎❄️
