mid October update 2011
Pick your own apple/pumpkin status:
Apple picking is closed.
Thanks to everyone who came out and helped make this year's apple harvest a success! We had a record Columbus Day weekend with all 3 days' weather remaining perfect and enough apples to make it through the entire weekend. We still have our own apples available in the farmstand and our own fresh pressed cider.
Pumpkin pick your own continues.
Jump on a hayride on the weekend and you can pick your own pumpkin right out of the field...a great way for kids to see just where they come from! Or if you prefer, rumage through our already picked piles right at the farmstand all week long.
Other events:
Our Hallo-Lantern hayrides continue again this year later in the month. Look for updates to this blog for specific dates and times or call our farmstand (see website for number).
The farmstand has all of our own fresh produce including our own just harvested potatoes, winter squash, apples, cider, and tomatoes and even eggs from our own flock fo chickens. We also have cider donuts, fresh pastries, jams, jellies, pickles, and other assorted items. We have cornstalks, hay bales, and other ghoulish decorating items for sale as well. Be sure to check out the spooktacular greenhouse! For the gardener, we have fetilizer, lime and winter rye seed and more...

Columbus Day update
Our Harvest Hoedown continues on Columbus Day Oct 10 (see description in previous post). As far as apple pick your own...we will have apples to pick on Monday for part of the day. We will be picking our "pot luck" orchard. What this means is there are apples to pick but no gaurantee of what variety is available. Additionally apple picking may or may not last all day. It all depends on the amount of people who come out to pick. If you miss out on apple picking we do have our own fresh apples already picked in the store. The other festivities will continue such as hayrides, pumpkin picking, music, food, pony rides etc. until closing time (4 pm). Have a safe holiday and thanks for supporting your local family farm.

Columbus Day weekend improtant updates
Revised 10/8/11 7pm
Columbus Day weekend looks to be superb weather wise (finally) so it should be a good time for our fall harvest hoedown. What is a "hoedown" anyways? Well traditionally farmers celebrate the end of the season after six months of long days growing and tending crops, dealing with mother nature and harvesting everything to bring to market...its when the farmer finally puts down his hoe. C N Smith carries on that tradition with a celebration for everyone. Come join us this weekend Saturday, Sunday and Monday Oct 8, 9, 10 for apple picking, pumpkin picking, hayrides, music, food, pony rides and more.
NOTE: Pick your own apples is NOT guaranteed every day this weekend. We will have apples all day Saturday and part of Sunday and part of Monday however we cannot ensure all day Sunday or Monday nor can we ensure the varieties available. There are also apples available already picked in the farmstand. Picking should inlcude the following varieties however not all of these varieties will be available all day so come early for your favorites:
Cortland (limited supply)
Empire
Red Delicious
Golden Delicious
Spencer
Northern Spy
Russet
Fuji
Breaburn
Mutsu
Granny Smith (very limited supply)
We anticipate a large crowd this weekend so please help by following parking attendant directions, pick your own staff directions, pick your own rules, leaving your pets at home, etc etc. There is a small parking fee for the Hoedown festivities. Additionally, please be patient in line and we will try to accomodate everyone in as timely a fashion as possible. There will be a police officer on duty for public safety.
Thank you for your support and have a fun and safe holiday weekend.
