We have a bumper crop of Ginger Gold, Sansa, McIntosh, and Gala.
“75’th Anniversary Special” for $10.00 picked pecks of Zestars from our cool room continues – they won’t last too much longer.
Donuts on Sunday – cider all week – come early while it is cooler!
We open tomorrow for our regular season ( a week earlier than last year). We will have excellent picking for Ginger Gold, Sansa, Gala and McIntosh. Hours are 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM daily except closed Mondays as usual (including Labor day Sept. 7).
Many of the Zestars were picked during our early apple weekend, but we picked those that remained Sunday evening and put them in our cold storage so they would not get too ripe with the hot weather. For those of you who missed out on early apple weekend (or need some more Zestars), we will be offering picked pecks this weekend for a “75’th Anniversary Special” at $10.00.
We plan additional “75’th anniversary specials” on future weekends. In addition we are cooperating with RK Miles who are also celebrating 75 years in the Northshire – stay tuned for details.
Weather (especially Friday and Saturday) is going to be cooler than this week – we will have cider all week and donuts Sat & Sun only – come early to be sure that the donuts have not run out.
Look forward to seeing you!!
We saw lots of familiar faces today – plenty of good fruit was picked. There is not as much fruit as this morning, but picking is still excellent.
Zestar, Ginger Gold, Sansa and tart Macs in the old orchard are easy to pick.
Come see us tomorrow or wait until Friday Sept 4 when we open for a regular season.
This years crop is really bountiful – all three early apple varieties ( Zestar, Ginger Gold and Sansa) are very good. MacIntosh in the old orchard are ripening as well – if you like them tart, they will be available also.
We will be open 9:00 to 5:30 both Saturday and Sunday and then closed until Friday Sept 4 when we open for the regular season (remember closed on Mondays).
Weather looks good for the weekend (maybe a little warm) – barn is cleaned up, most of the signs are out – we have some fruit picked and in the cool room.
Come see us!
Some fine looking Zestars
We have a very good crop this year and the apple season is early – we will open Saturday Aug 29 and Sunday Aug 30 for an early apple weekend. We will then be closed as usual on Monday and also Tuesday, Wed, Thursday – then open for our regular season on Friday Sept 4 for more early apples and McIntosh – not sure about Galas – Honeycrisp will be a week or two later.
Zestars, Ginger Golds and Sansas will all be available . Zestars have been picked out the first day or two in prior years, so come early. They are a great eating apple and excellent for pies – we make our main batch of pies to freeze for the winter using Zestars. Ginger Golds are excellent for eating and baking. Sansas are a firm sweet eating apple.
Look forward to seeing you!!
