Weekend Forecast–October 1st & 2nd

Happy October everyone!  I love October at the apple orchard – crisp weather, fall decorations and delicious apples!  Can’t wait!

The rumors are true – we are all sold out of honeycrisp apples.  And no – we won’t be getting anymore.  We only sell apples that we grow and pick at our orchard.  I’m sorry if you’re super bummed about this but I guarantee you’re not the only one.  I would LOVE to have honeycrisp apples all season long if we could but unfortunately a frost in May during blossom time severely damaged our honeycrisp crop.  Luckily – it didn’t affect all of our apples quite to that extent and we still have TONS of amazingly delicious apples to try!

I’m truly not just “Saying” that we have apples that are just as good if not better than honeycrisp left.  We’ve proven throughout this week we can successfully find an apple folks are going to love to eat for the end of the season.  From my personal observations if you like the crisp/juicy/slightly tart side of the honeycrisp you’re going to pick a Jonagold. If you like the sweeter side of the honeycrisp give the Snow Sweet aside.  Sometimes we may ask you what you ate “before” you discovered the honeycrisp. You see – the honeycrisp apple is one of those apples that EVERYONE likes – be it a typically tart apple eater, sweet apple eater, or somewhere in the middle.  A person who liked to eat Cortland’s before they had honeycrisp may want to try the Melrose or Bonnie’s Best (or cortland). 

I’m not sure if the paragraph above makes any sense at all but the main point I’m trying to make is still come on in – we will help you find a great apple (or three)!IMG_2229

Our pumpkin patch is OPEN and there are some gorgeous pumpkins being picked out there!  We have FIVE different areas we grew pumpkins this year which means you get to go on an adventure to find the perfect one!  Grab a wagon if you see one – or bring your own and see what you can find! 

Hope to see you at the orchard! We’re open from 9-6 today – Saturday, and 10-5 tomorrow!
