October Update 1

Apple picking status for the weekend of Oct 3 and 4: We will be picking Honeycrisp, Macoun, Cortlands, and Empires! Empire is a nice small sized eating apple that especially goes well in kids lunches. It is a McIntosh/Red Delicious cross with a very unique flavor (that is neither Mac or Red Delicious in nature). Don't let a little drizzle keep you out of the orchard either! The orchard is mowed so your feet wont get too wet. Its supposed to be mild as well this weekend. If unsettled weather continues on the weekends we may have an extended picking season this year so stay tuned - (we are usually picked out by Columbus Day but if no one comes because its rainy, then we may have enough for a few more Oct weekends!)
