Mid October 2012 Picking Update

The 2012 APPLE harvest has been quite a success and best of all, its still going on! Thanks to all those who come out and pick apples and special thanks to most of you who do so in a civilized manner! October continues with PICK YOUR OWN APPLES and PUMPKINS (hayride purchase is required to get to the orchard and pumpkin patch. Pumpkins and apples priced seperately). Several apple varieties are available in the orchard including honeycrisp, delicious, and mutsu. Pick your own apples are limited in supply. We also have plenty of other apple varieties for sale in the farmstand, piles of pumpkins just outside the farm stand, fall decorations, baked goods, fall vegetables like potatoes and winter squashes, our own fresh pressed apple cider, and more. Now is also the time to think about putting your garden to bed for the winter. We have winter rye seed, straw for mulching and other gardening supplies as well. For those of you wondering, the Hallow-Lantern carved-pumpkin Hayride is cancelled for 2012 due to circumstances beyond our control but you can check back next year for a possible reincarnation. Thank you for your support of local agriculture. ~Smith Farm
