The orchard is absolutely heavenly right! And we are so excited to share it with you all. I do have to add a few more rules for being out in the orchard right now for both photographers and the public.

1. There is absolutely no climbing in the trees.
2. Do not pick the blossoms of the trees. These blossoms are the future apples. Once the bees pollinate the blossoms they become apples. Not every blossom will be pollinated and we do not want to risk damage to our apple crop because pollinated blossoms were picked.

Thank you all so much for respecting our orchard and allowing us to continue sharing it with the public!

We are open to the public Saturday, May 9th and Sunday, May 10th from 7am to 11:30pm if you’d like to come walk through the trees and get some pictures!

The orchard is slowly starting to bloom out.  It’s just begun so hopefully we can work out a time so everyone who wants to visit and takes pictures gets an opportunity!

It is definitely not at it’s ‘peek’ blossom yet … but if you want to take some pictures of blossoms or even get some family pictures taken in them I’m sure you’d be able to find a section or two that would work for a backdrop!

Lots of the trees look like this … so there are more blossoms to come.

My favorite trees in the orchard – the Scarlets are starting to bloom!  I just love their gorgeous pink blooms!!!!

So – when can you come out?  This week! 

The orchard will be open (not the store):

Tuesday, May 5th: 4pm to 7:30pm

Wednesday, May 6th: 4pm to 7:30pm

Friday, May 7th: 4pm to 7:30pm

Saturday, May 8th: 7am to 11:30am

Sunday, May 9th: 7am to 11:30am

Just a little fun editing my blossom pictures. These are from the Scarlet trees … which aren’t in full bloom yet … they just look so cool it’s easy to get some sweet shots!
