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!

Kraut Day 2019

My father-in-law ran out of kraut so they decided to grow cabbage this year.  Which means – we’re bringing back out KRAUT DAY!

Have you ever wondered how Sauerkraut is made?  Well – you’re opportunity to find out and even make your very own is here!

Kraut Day at Lapacek's Orchard
What:  Kraut Day
When:  Saturday, August 24th from 1pm to 4pm
Where:  Lapacek’s Orchard, N1959 Kroncke Road, Poynette, WI

 Kraut Day at Lapacek's Orchard

    What’s Happening?

    • Help make the kraut (sauerkraut).
    • Take home a bucket of kraut (about 6 quarts) to ferment at home.
      Fermentation takes 6 to 8 weeks.
    • You'll leave with instructions to can or freeze your kraut after
      fermentation is complete. Or just put it in the frig and eat it over
      the next few months.
    • Cost is $15 per bucket of kraut.
    • Bring the whole family. Make one bucket or several. Stop by anytime between 1 to 4 on Saturday, August 24th to make your bucket or buckets. 
    This year Kraut day will be run by our brother-in-law Matt!
