Apples available in the orchard now are:
Gala
Smoothie (early variety of Golden Delicious)
Ruby Mac
Partial row of Honeycrisp
Still lots of all the above varieties left!
Coming up:
The 2 main Honeycrisp rows are coming soon but still ripening.
The 3 rows of Red Jonagold (all the way back toward the railroad tracks on the south side) are getting close too. If you pick the red ones, they are really nice and sweet, but there many out there that are still too green tasting. So if you really want them now, just walk along and only pick the red ones. All the other rows of Jonagold are still ripening. They are farther behind.
Our 3rd Annual Apple Festival will be on Saturday, Oct 10th this year! 10am-2pm. There will be apple and applesauce tasting, crafts for the kids, Gator rides, farm equipment to climb on and a scavenger hunt. All free! So come join us!
And don't forget we are on Instagram now @Beilke_Family_Farm. Just a peek into other things we are doing here on the farm!
