Largest Apple Contest

It is officially October! Which means, for the sixth year, it is time for our Largest Apple Contest! This year we will have a winner every week in the month of October! We will announce the winner of the week every Monday starting on October 6th. The contest winner every week will receive TWO FREE BUCKETS OF U-PICK APPLES! The contest is judged by weight of the apple and the apple has to have been found in our orchard. We have a scale at the stand so make sure to stop and have your largest apple recorded to be entered to win the weekly prize! We will record the size of your apple, and your contact information so we can call the winner and let them know they won.

Pumpkins, Apples, and Tomatoes, Oh My!

The Sunshine returns this weekend! A perfect time to come enjoy the ever expanding Ripe and Ready list. This week we have 10 different varieties of Apples to choose from. 
Pumpkins are ready to be found in the patch! We have been thrilled to see the giant stems on our carving pumpkins, and the color coming out of our decorative patch are so exciting! Mini pumpkins, baking pumpkins, and gourds are all available at the stand as well as in the field.
Tomatoes are doing fantastic. Peppers are doing great also, with a plentiful amount of Jalapenos ready to be picked. 
The Sunflower Maze and U-pick Flowers are still going strong! The maze will last for about another week or two. Make sure to take a stroll after you are done picking your Apples.

Pumpkins and Golden and Red Delicious

This week we have added Golden Delicious and Red Delicious to the Ripe and Ready list.
Golden Delicious are one of the most underrated apples. Some people assume they will be soft and mushy since they have experienced that with store bought Golden Delicious. However, fresh off the tree, Goldens are fantastic! They are sweet, crunchy and juicy. They are also rated the second best apple for apple pies. Second only to the Grannysmith.
Red delicious can sometimes get a bad wrap. But fresh off the tree, these apples are great!  Crunchy and mild in flavor, they make a great snack.
Watermelons are still sweet and delicious, but this will most likely be our last weekend to purchase one.
Pumpkins are ready to be found in the pumpkin patch! We are so excited to see the exciting colors and shapes that are being found and brought to the stand. Gourds and squash are now ready as well. We have Butternut, Acorn, Spaghetti and Delicatta squash available.
Tomatoes and Peppers are full and ready to be picked. Our vines are loaded with red, ripe tomatoes. 
The sunflower maze is still in full bloom. If you haven't taken a walk through the maze yet, make sure to check it  out. Sunflowers and all other u-pick flowers can be picked at the u-pick rate. Beautiful flower bouquets created by Little Sunshine Flower Farm are also available at the stand Thursday through Sunday.
