BASIC ONE-HOUR TOUR
 Depending on the weather and the time of year, the group is taken on a
walking or riding tour of the orchard and entertained with a presentation
of 24 apple varieties and other fruits We include a look "behind the
scenes" at the sorting and storage area, and the large cider press.
The country store brings back memories of the olden days with its
delightful collection of apples and antiques. Jewel like preserves, apple cider and delicious fruit pies are available. The many
apple, pear, and Asian pear varieties make buying directly from the farmer
a wonderful experience. For the discriminating shopper, many other unique
products fill the store.

animals, which can include goats, guinea
fowl, chickens. Our self feeding goat, who climbs to
the top of the "Goat Walk to the Stars", is amazing (returning

FAMILY AND FRIENDS
- U PICK APPLES AT THE APPLE FARM
 The season for u pick runs October 15 - 21, 2006. As this is a
working orchard, make sure you dress for a farm visit, with protective
clothing if it is raining, and sturdy footwear. There is a minimum charge
of $4.00 per person to go out in the orchard with a staff
member for a minimum of 10 people. (This includes children). Please
call ahead to book your U-Pick event. Please
check as sometimes the apples are not ready for U-Pick. This will help us
to combine small groups together so that we may offer the U-pick to
smaller families.
A minimum of 5 pounds of apples must be picked by the
group, but there is no maximum. Our staff member will indicate the rows to
pick, and show you how to pick. The rest is up to you We ask that you have
fun and pick your own fresh fruit from the trees!
We ask that you please respect the orchard by staying in the area
that has been designated and by not littering. After you have finished
picking, your guide will bring your apples back to the barn to be weighed.
The price of your freshly hand_picked apples will be 60 to 80
cents a pound.
The most important thing to remember is that you should enjoy your time
out in the orchard, and bring home memories of the farm.
Have fun at the farm!! Cheers !!!
