Since the dawn of time, or close to it, the men of my family have worked to build the perfect pomegranate press. A few years ago, my Sweet Husband and my Sweet Dad created this. This year my Dad created a tumbler to separate the membrane from the seeds, then the seeds go through the chipper, into in the washer, and they come out as juice!
Separating the seeds from the membrane helps the juice not be bitter.
We all came to help, it was also an exciting weekend because Sweet Girl got to meet her new cousin!
It's so fun to see the two of them play together!
My cousins are so sweet and helped them play in the airplane while we all cut the pomegranates.
Her face in this picture... lol!
Sweet Girl loved to see what Grandpa was up to
(separating the seeds and the tiny remaining membranes, these were used in pomegranate salad)

Such a helper!
Final tally:
14 Gallons of Sweet Pomegranate Juice
60 Gallons of Sour pomegranate Juice
and about a million pomegranates cut and/or shelled
(all of those are correct facts,,, except the last)
