Wednesday, Oct. 14
It promises to be a beautiful day. There are areas on the farm with Macoun, Empire, Red Delicious and Cortland still to pick.
They are in limited rows and higher on the trees – picking poles will be very useful!
If you are coming to pick lots of your favorite apples you may find it challenging. If you’d like to pick a peck while you stroll around it should be satisfying!
On the stand you’ll find our Macoun, Cortland, McIntosh, Empires and Ruby Macs, also Honeycrisp and gourds. Daily 10-5. The orchard gate closes at 5.

Apples – update
We are nearing the end of pick your own apples. There are still Macoun, Cortland, Empire, McIntosh, old fashion New England Red Delicious and a smattering of other kinds left on the trees. They are mostly quite high or inside. By the weekend there will be fewer still!
For now you can take a bag into the orchard and see what you can find. The price is by the bag. A peck is $18. and 1/2 bushel is $34. There are no other charges.
There are still many varieties to buy at the stand including Honeycrisp, Gala, Macoun, McIntosh, Empire and Cortland. They are packed in 1/2 peck for $10.
You will need to talk with us if you are thinking of gathering in a group. Our stand and parking areas can not accommodate more than a small family at a time. Masks at required everywhere!

Gravenstein, Ginger Gold, Honeycrisp and Gala Apples
We are reaching the end of the earliest varieties – Ginger Gold and Gravenstein but the Honeycrisp and Gala apples are just about ready. You can try picking them now. There will be ripe ones that come off the tree easily. We will wait a little longer to pick them for the stand.
Peaches, freestone yellow varieties, are available for PYO. The current variety is to harder to find in the orchard, the next ones are almost ready to go. White peaches are gone for this year.
You will find the early apples on the stand a while longer with our honey, peaches and maybe some tomatoes!
