We have made it to the sweet spot of the 2023 Apple Season! We have both the early sweet apples still Ripe and Ready, and all of the winter apples are popping up as well. Right now we have 14 different varieties to choose from! This week, Cripps Pink, Gold Rush, and Granny Smith were added to the list.
Cripps Pink are a great sweet-tart apple that are wonderful for snacking, baking, applesauce, and storing. We did a contest a few years back and made an apple crisp out of every variety in the orchard and blind tested them. The Cripps Pink was a unanimous winner! They are better known as Pink Lady.
Gold Rush is a very fun apple. It is a tart-sweet apple with a great crunch. It is great for snacking, baking, applesauce, storing, and our very favorite choice for apple cider. This apple almost tastes like it is carbonated. If you haven't ever tried one, we highly suggest you do.
Granny Smith is your classic green apple. A tart apple that sweetens when baked and makes the most amazing pies. These are great for storing as well.
Pumpkins are doing great! We still have a plentiful supply of classic carving pumpkins and a decent supply of decorative as well. We have had a lot of people ask if we have good pumpkins for baking. We do! We have a small section of baking specific pumpkins to choose from in the patch. We have also found that the blue and pink decorative pumpkins are wonderful for baking as well.
Pears are back! We have another picking of our Bosc pears already picked at the stand!
Tomatoes and Flowers are still available for u-pick as well. We will have them until the first frost.
