September 29-30 Pick Your Own Update

September 29-30: Although the weather looks damp for this coming weekend, we will be open for picking (unless it’s a complete washout). Varieties available will include Spencer, Red and Yellow Delicious, Breaburn, Fuji, Mutsu, Granny Smith, Macoun, Empire, Cortland, Northern Spy and of course, Honeycrisp! Some varieties are limited in supply and we cannot guarantee all will be available when you come to pick. Pick your own hours are Saturday/Sunday 9-4. Pick your own Pumpkins also continues if the weather permits (hayride purchase required). Piles of pumpkins and other apple choices are also available at the farm stand on South Street just down the road from the orchard entrance, as well as our own cider, vegetables, pumpkins, mums, and other fall plantings. We still have our own homegrown garlic available. If you’re used to generic white supermarket garlic, you won’t believe the flavor of homegrown! Please note: There is no separate entrance fee to the orchard HOWEVER you MUST purchase a bag before entering the orchard to pick. There is a 10 lb minimum purchase for pick your own which allows a family of 4 into the orchard. A 20lb bag is also available. Larger groups may have to purchase an additional bag(s) to be allowed into the orchard. More picking information, policies, recipes, etc. can be found on our apple picking website page at www.cnsmithfarminc.com. Thank you for your cooperation and support of local agriculture. ~CN Smith Farm Apple Team
