 m Slavery\, Civil War Veterans and America's First Opioid Crisis. \n\nDur
 ing the Civil War\, the utility and widespread availability of opium and 
 morphine made opiates essential to wartime medicine. After the war ended\
 , thousands of ailing soldiers became addicted\, or "enslaved\," as ninet
 eenth-century Americans phrased it. Veterans\, their families\, and commu
 nities struggled to cope with addiction's health and social consequences.
  Medical and government authorities compounded veterans' suffering and im
 bued the epidemic with cultural meaning by branding addiction as a matter

  the Virginia Association of Cider Makers\, this event includes cider tas
 tings\, a souvenir cider cup\, live music\, tavern games\, and a little h
 istory too! \n\nWhile enjoying a selection of Virginia ciders\, learn mor
 e about the growing Virginia cider industry and its connection to Alexand

 year\, for the nation's 250th anniversary\, the VA250 Mobile Museum Exper

 \nCider was a popular beverage in 18th- and early 19th-century Alexandria
  and was offered at area taverns\, including Gadsby's Tavern. Thomas Jeff
 erson cultivated eighteen varieties of apples in his orchard at Monticell
 o (planted between 1769 and 1814). Today\, there are over 30 different ap
 ple varieties grown specifically for cider production throughout Virginia
 . Cider is fermented like wine\, not brewed like beer. One of the most co
 mmon misconceptions amongst consumers is that hard cider is made in just 
 'one' style rather than the many different styles that are produced. Virg
 inia Cider Week was established by the Virginia General Assembly in 2012 
 to recognize this growing segment of Virginia's economy.\n\nTickets are $
 50 per person (through November 1) and $55 (November 1-20)\, and $25 desi
