***CONTEST***
We have been blown away at the size of some of the apples you all have found in our orchard! Some of them can get SO big! This has inspired us to come up with a fun activity for the orchard. A largest apple contest!
It’s very simple, we have a scale at the entrance to the orchard, and whoever hauls in the heaviest apple will win THREE FREE BUCKETS OF APPLES! Our orchard attendant will weigh the apple for you and mark down the weight in our log along with your name and phone number or email.
The contest will go through TODAY and ends November 15th! This will leave two weeks left in the season for the winner to be able to come and claim their prize before the season ends.
The apple has to be found in our orchard but can be any variety that is out there. We have found some monsters in all the different varieties so it should be interesting to see what variety the winning apple will be!
Happy Hunting!

We are having a great season and plan to be open through to Thanksgiving this year and possibly the week after or until we run out of apples. We will keep you posted on our closing date for this year.
Gala, Jonathan, Red Delicious and Pears are officially done for the season. Several other rows have just barely opened and are loaded with apples!
We still have plenty of pumpkins for those that have lost their carved pumpkins to the frost but still would like a decorated porch for Thanksgiving. All pumpkins are now $1.
