The First week of the Largest Apple Contest has a winner! Victor won week #1 with an Apple weighing in at 1.60 pounds. It was a GIANT!
Congratulations to Victor, they won two free buckets of u-pick apples. We start week #2 today, so make sure to stop in at the Apple stand and have your largest apple weighed to enter week #2. The winner will be announced next Monday and receive TWO FREE BUCKETS of u-pick apples!
We also had the rest of our late season Apples pop up today. Rome Beauty, Cripps Pink, Gold Rush, and Grannysmith are all now Ripe and Ready!
Rome Beauty has a gorgeous ruby red skin that’s as beautiful as it is tasty. These apples are perfect for baking whole and add a lovely touch to any pie. Not only do they taste fantastic, but they also store well, making them a great choice for your fall baking adventures.
Cripps Pink are a great sweet-tart apple that are wonderful for snacking, baking, applesauce, and storing. We did a contest a few years back and made an apple crisp out of every variety in the orchard and blind tested them. The Cripps Pink were a unanimous winner! They are better known as Pink Lady.
Gold Rush is a very fun apple. It is a tart-sweet apple with a great crunch. It is great for snacking, baking, applesauce, storing, and our very favorite choice for apple cider. This apple almost tastes like it is carbonated. If you haven't ever tried one, we highly suggest you do.
Granny Smith is your classic green apple. A tart apple that sweetens when baked and makes the most amazing pies. These are great for storing as well.
The Pumpkin Patch is thriving with a huge assortment of pumpkins to be found.
Tomatoes, Peppers, and Flowers are also still doing great and with the weather we are having, should be available for several more weeks.
