Fuji, Braeburn, Rome Beauty, and The Largest Apple Contest

What an exciting morning we had as we tested our fall apples—and guess what? Three varieties are ready for you to enjoy! Fuji, Braeburn, and Rome Beauty are the first of our storage apples to ripen this season, and you won’t want to miss out!
Let’s start with the Fuji apple, a favorite known for its irresistibly sweet and crunchy flavor. These apples are incredibly versatile—perfect for snacking, baking, or making delicious applesauce. Plus, they’re the first storage apple of the year! When stored properly, they can last an impressive 3 to 6 months. Last year, we sold out in less than five days, so make sure you seize the opportunity to grab some Fuji while you can!
Next up is the Rome Beauty apple, with its 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.
And let’s not forget the Braeburn! This sweet and crunchy apple is a must-try for both eating fresh and baking. With its delightful flavor and great storage qualities, it’s a fantastic addition to your fall apple lineup.
The Largest Apple Contest is in its first week. Make sure to be on the hunt while picking your apples for the largest one in the orchard. Have it weighed at the stand to be entered into this weeks contest. Winner is announced on Monday and receives TWO FREE BUCKETS of Apples!
We have Bosc Pears! They are pre-picked and ready at the stand.
The Pumpkin Patch is looking wonderful. Whether you’re looking for the perfect pumpkin for carving, decorating, or baking, we have a fantastic selection waiting for you.
Tomatoes and Peppers are still plentiful and ready for picking as well as our u-pick flowers.
Our sunflower maze is in its home stretch of blooming. Make sure to take a stroll through the maze before the blooms start falling.
Watermelon and Squash are done for the season.

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.
