I'm looking for a place to get apples this fall to press and make hard cider.
Honey Crisp and Pink Lady aren't hard to get a hold of but in the past I have got cider from apples like Brown Snout, and Franklin to create a mix. I'm wondering where to get apples like these to press my own cider to then ferment.
 
I recommend reaching out to some of the cold storage places on the east side. Selah, Yakima, Wenatchee, and Naches have lots of them. Ask for juicing apples and you'll save $$$. We got them for about 35 a pound when buying in bulk for our club one year.

Lots of us on the (rural) west side have small orchards on our land. Look for local people on FB, most are willing to let you come pick rather than just waste the apples.
