Here Comes The Rain

Here comes the rain! Our tomatoes are finally doing great and now the rain is coming. To prevent our great big ripe slicers from splitting due to the rain, we picked a BUNCH of boxes to have ready at the stand for you all for We-pick this weekend. We have some Romas ready for We-pick as well. We-pick tomatoes are $1.25 per pound and U-pick is still at $1 per pound. There is a bountiful amount still on the vine that are ripening and not in danger of splitting, so we will still have tomatoes for weeks to come!
This weekend we will also have Pre-picked boxes of Ruby Mac at the stand for those that don't want to pick in the rain. Our pre-picked Beilke boxes are $18 a piece and are exactly one full bucket of apples. Ruby Mac are a very fun sweet/tart apple that are a deep red color, crunchy, and great for applesauce, pies, and eating. We can also do other varieties in a Beilke box with advance notice. Feel free to call or email us to order other varieties. 
Liberty and Melrose have also been added to the Ripe and Ready list! Liberty is a fun red apple that are the best for drying. Melrose is a favorite of our employees and is known for being similar to the Jonagold but just a tiny bit less sweet. 
Honeycrisp are almost gone! I repeat, HONEYCRISP ARE ALMOST GONE! We will most likely sell out completely of this highly sought after apple within the next two days. If you were still hoping to find some, I would come visit this weekend!
Pumpkins are open!! We have quite the variety this year, but our unique colored pumpkins always seem to sell fast. Make sure to visit soon if you were hoping for some fun colors!

Our favorites are finally ready! We have opened the Jonagold rows! Jonagolds are a crisp, sweet and juicy apple. They have that classic apple flavor and are great for everything. We are opening the first three rows, so make sure to check-in with the orchard attendants to find the right rows.

We have also added Ruby Jon and Golden Delicious to the Ripe and Ready list! Ruby Jon are our #1 apple for applesauce. If you leave a tiny bit of the peal on it will also turn your applesauce a fun pink color! Our youngest visitors love the pink applesauce. Golden Delicious can get a bad rap in the grocery stores for being too soft. But, right off the tree these apples shine. They are crisp and sweet and very versatile. Great for eating, pies and applesauce.

Honeycrisp are still being picked but we won’t have them much longer. Don’t miss out!

Watermelon are SOLD OUT! We have been overwhelmed and thrilled with the response to our fun venture into Watermelon this year. We will definitely be growing them again next year. Thanks for humoring us and trying new crops with us!

Tomatoes are FINALLY ripening!! We have a LOT of romas ready to be picked and the slicers have more ripe everyday. We also have 4 rows of Heirlooms that have quite a bit ripe and ready also!

Here’s the big announcement, for all you die hard pumpkin fans. OUR PUMPKINS ARE READY!!! We have classic and fancy pumpkins this year. All orange classic style pumpkins will be 35 cents per pound and our more unique decorating pumpkins will be 45 cents per pound.

And don’t forget to take a stroll through our sunflowers on your way out to the Tomatoes and Pumpkins!

Go For A Sunflower Stroll!

Our Honeycrisp are going strong and look amazing this year! We have picked through three rows and have two rows left, so make sure to come pick some before they are gone!
Gala are still being picked this week and are perfect for all the back to school lunches this week. Ruby Mac and Smoothie are also still being picked.
Tomatoes are still working on ripening. We have some romas that can be found and picked with a bit of searching, but if you were hoping for slicers we recommend waiting about a week for them to ripen.
Watermelons have been flying out of the patch and are almost sold out! We have been blown away by how many of you have enjoyed the watermelon and we just might have to bring it back again next year!

This week our empty space in front of our tomatoes is blooming! It is a Sunflower Stroll! We use the word stroll instead of maze because there are many exits and we just designed it to be a nice leisurely stroll through our Sunflowers. We have really enjoyed planting this and have been super excited to see it bloom and watch people enjoy it!
