Father’s Day Trailer Backin’ Up Derby

Looking for fun, family-friendly activities near Yosemite this Father's Day weekend? Join us at Sierra Cider in Mariposa for an afternoon of cider, orchard views, and a one-of-a-kind competition that will put Dad's skills to the test.

This Father's Day, we're hosting our first-ever Father's Day Trailer Backin' Up Derby! Think you've got what it takes to back up a trailer like a pro? Contestants will attempt to reverse our harvesting trailer, hitched to a golf cart, down an orchard row without stopping or bumping into a tree. It sounds easy—until everyone is watching.

The competition begins at 5:00 PM, and all participants who successfully complete the course will receive a free glass of cider or a refreshing cider slushie. The fastest clean run of the day wins a free bottle of Sierra Cider to take home.

While we're calling it a Father's Day Derby, everyone is welcome to compete. Ladies are encouraged to enter and show the dads how it's done. Nothing says Father's Day quite like a little friendly competition and some good-natured bragging rights.

Participants must be 18 years or older to enter the derby.

To make the day even better, we're offering a Father's Day Buy One, Get One Free special. Bring your dad to Sierra Cider and enjoy a BOGO deal on cider pours. It's the perfect excuse to spend quality time together while enjoying local craft cider in the beautiful Sierra foothills.

Whether you're a local resident or visiting Yosemite National Park, Sierra Cider is a great stop for families looking for things to do in Mariposa. Our orchard setting offers a relaxed atmosphere where parents can unwind while kids explore the outdoors. It's one of the many family-friendly attractions near Yosemite that combines local agriculture, beautiful scenery, and unique experiences you won't find anywhere else.
