The last weekend in September is always a busy weekend for the orchard. We will again be selling apples at the Brookville Farm and Machinery show which will mark over 20 consecutive years of being part of the event. We enjoy seeing so many of our loyal customers come back year after year on Thursday thru Sunday looking for their favorite apples and also sharing life updates and stories. Take some time and enjoy the events of the weekend and visit the show. https://www.fcamc.org/
The hot and dry weather has delayed the harvest for several varieties of apples. We have just started harvesting the following apples to add as available varieties to be purchased starting this week:
Red Delicious, Yellow Delicious, Mutsu, Melrose, Jonagold
Other varieties still available include:
McIntosh, Gala, Fuji, Cortland, Empire
Come out and visit us to get your all time favorite apples and try some new varieties too!
Batesville Intermediate third graders will be participating in the Great Lakes Great Apple Crunch on Oct. 10 https://www.cias.wisc.edu/AppleCrunch/ We will be doing apple activities throughout the day, and would love to crunch into locally grown apples. Would you be willing to work with us on getting enough apples for all of our students for this day? We would appreciate any help you may be able to give. Thank you!
Cindy,
