PLEASE HELP RECYCLE!
Drop off your plastic bags and canning jars at the orchard and we'll re-use them!
We're always looking for wagons for people to use when they go to our pumpkin patch - feel free to drop off your old or un-used wagons at the orchard!
We're also happy to take any picnic tables you're getting rid of - even if it's just the 'bones' of the table.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Sauce-Sational: An Experiment in Applesauce - Jonathan
We had many disappointed customers when our Jonathan’s sold out extremely fast this year. There just weren’t many on the trees…not exactly sure why. But I can tell you – we are planting more Jonathan trees and after making applesauce with them I will definitely keep encouraging Jared to keep the stock up.
When the guys came in with 10 ‘found’ Jonathan I immediately snatched them up for my applesauce experiment. I peeled, cored, and sliced five of the apples and cooked them down like normal.
It did not take long for them to cook down to a nice, smooth sauce that was wonderful tasting. I would describe it as a true apple taste – tart, but not too tart. A really rich applesauce – especially for one with just a single apple in it.
One thing that customers have always told me about Jonathan’s is that if you leave the skins on they make a beautiful pink sauce.
So I took the other five apples and chopped them up – just removing the core and cooked them up.
Again, it wasn’t long before I had this gorgeous pink sauce – seriously – what a rich, beautiful color! AND, the skins seemed to sweeten the sauce up making it a truly delicious sauce. Now, if I were to feed this to my baby I would have put it through a food mill, but since we adults munched on it, I just left the skins right in there. They really weren’t too noticeable.
