2016 RASPBERRY SEASON IS DONE – APPLES WILL START LATE AUG./EARLY SEPT.

Thanks for making our raspberry harvest a good one – a lot of folks got a lot of good berries.

As we walk thru the orchard, the apple crop is looking somewhat better than it did several weeks ago.  The old McIntosh trees still have a very light crop and the fruit will be small.   The amount of fruit on the young trees varies greatly tree by tree – some with almost no fruit and others with a good crop.  All varieties seem to have some fruit – overall there may be 40% of a normal crop.

We will have an early apple weekend either in late August or early September for Zestar, Sansa, and Ginger Gold – then open a week or more later for McIntosh and Gala.  Honey crisp will start mid September or later.

I will post on both our web site and Facebook when we can better estimate when fruit will be ripe.
