Crop Report: Crisp Fall Air & Juicy Apples
Thanks for checking in! Yay, it's finally starting to feel like fall!! Now it's definitely time to start making apple sauce and baking apple and pumpkin pies! We will have lots of great all-purpose apple varieties available in our farm market this weekend. Full list of apple varieties and produce available in our farm market (as supplies last) to follow. Enjoy the beautiful autumn weather this weekend!
We are excited to announce that we will be releasing a limited batch of Honeycrisp Cider this weekend. First come first served so be sure to get it while you can! Our regular apple cider blend will also be available (as supplies last).
Our u-pick pumpkin patch is open seven days a week during business hours. There are lots of awesome pumpkins to choose from! For those who aren't feeling too adventurous, we have an abundance of pumpkins up at the farm market to choose from as well. They are all just so unique! There's nothing like a fall afternoon exploring the pumpkin patch, be sure to check this fall favorite off your 2019 fall bucket list. Our pumpkin patch is just a short leisurely walk from our farm market.
This fall we are partnering with John Bryan Community Pottery in YS to bring you all the perfect fall activity, Press & Pour. In this workshop participants will make a ceramic cup at the pottery studio and then press their own apple cider here at the orchard! For more info and to sign up visit www.communitypottery.com. We've participated in several of their workshops over the years and it's always a blast! Friends and family are welcome to come and join the cider press on the last evening!
