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.

Melrose are Ready

Melrose have popped up and have been added to the Ripe and Ready list!
Melrose are a wonderful versatile apple. One of our favorite picks for eating. They are crisp, juicy, and sweet. But not too sweet. They are wonderful for eating, applesauce, and pies. A must try.
The Sunflower Maze is in full bloom and looking wonderful. We don't charge admission for anything at the orchard and that includes the Sunflower Maze! Take a stroll and enjoy the cool grass. Sunflowers can be u-cut at our u-cut flower rate.
Watermelon are still being picked in the field. However, we don't expect these to be plentiful for much longer. Make sure to come pick some before they are gone for the year.
Tomatoes, Peppers, and Squash are all plentiful and ready for picking. 
Pumpkins are looking great and we are enjoying seeing the fun colors and patterns that are coming out of the patch.
