Picture is of young MacIntosh tree near the barn. We are picking MacIntosh, Gala and Ginger Gold.
Maple syrup was delivered today. Picked up 80 gallons of cider, so now we will have cider every day.
Mrs. Murphy’s donuts will be here Saturday and Sunday.
Come see us – tell your friends
We open tomorrow Thursday Sept 11 for McIntosh (which will be tart) , Gala and Ginger Gold. The crop is very good this year – lots of Gala and McIntosh – still good Ginger Gold.
The Honeycrisp crop is excellent – we think they will be ripe around Sept 20. Fuji, Cortland, Empire and Macoun also have a lot of fruit and will follow soon after Honeycrisp.
Come get your apples – picking will be easy !!
We will open our regular season on Thursday Sept 11 with more good Ginger Golds, McIntosh (which will be tart) and Gala.
Open every day 9:00 – 5:30 except closed on Mondays.
We had a really nice early apple day – lots of familiar folks got some nice apples. As I expected Zestars and Sansas were picked out.
Come see us.
Pictures are of folks who were here today enjoying the beautiful weather (and getting some nice fruit).
This is our new updated Mad Tom Orchard web site – address is the same www.madtomorchard.com – hope it makes sense to everyone. Please forward any questions.
Zestars, Sansas, and Ginger Golds are all looking good for Sunday!!
Early apple day for Zestars, Sansas, and Ginger Golds will be Sunday Sept 7
(not Saturday Sept 6) – the weather forecast for Saturday is 60 % chance of rain but Sunday (the 7’th) is supposed to be sunny with a high of 68, so we have decided to go with Sunday.
The crop size is moderate for both Zestars and Sansas, so we may get picked out in a day. Ginger Golds will probably last for a couple of weeks into our regular season.
We will start our regular season for McIntosh (they will be tart) on Thursday Sept 11 – there will be Ginger Golds then and maybe some Zestars and Sansas – Galas may or may not be ripe yet as of Sept 11, but will be ripe soon after.
Come help us start the season!!
