We will start picking Empires tomorrow (Thursday Sept 28) – there is a good crop – see photo. Forecast is (finally) for cooler weather – come before the weekend to beat the crowds.
Honeycrisp are best in the bottom block below the three Cortland rows. Macouns are good at the bottom rows below the Honeycrisp. MacIntosh good in several places, especially the old orchard. Cortlands are good in the bottom three rows and the last row in the old orchard. Gala and Fuji also have good picking.
We will be back open tomorrow after our Monday off. Still good Honeycrisp – fewer by the weekend – don’t wait too long. MacIntosh, Cortland, Gala, Macoun and Fuji continue to be in good supply, but a good many have been picked.
Empires will open on Thursday. We have two more hot days forecast, so come early.
We expect to be open thru Columbus Day weekend (but not Monday). There will be fewer apples than we have now. Come now while the picking is easier.
Alyssa found the wooden apple Friday to win an iPod and she gets to keep the apple. !!
Lots of good fruit still out there – come early when it is cooler. Cider and donuts today and tomorrow.
There are good Honeycrisp – especially if you go farther down the hill. Plenty of MacIntosh, Cortland, Gala, Macoun and Fuji as well.
Cooler today – still best to come early, especially on the weekend. Cider and donuts on Saturday and Sunday.
It looks like a warm week coming up, so come early when it is cooler. Picking for all the mid season varieties is excellent this week. Honeycrisp will be plentiful thru the coming weekend and we hope they will still be available next weekend as well. Fruit this week will be more plentiful than later in the season.
The wooden apple is still waiting to be found – win an IPod. There is plenty of cold cider. Donuts will be back on Saturday and Sunday.
