The time has arrived! This weekend, we will start picking Sweet Sixteen and Honey Crisp. We will also have the last of the Zestar and Goodland. The crop of Honey Crisp is about like last years crop. Not huge by any means, but I would call it an average crop. Honey Crisp is a difficult apple to grow and we are the northern edge of growing it. The winters give the trees a real beating. Thats why we planted so many in the first place, because we knew how difficult it was going to be. On the horizon will be Haralred / Haralson and Snow Sweet. They should be ready in a few weeks. McIntosh should be ready by next weekend. This is prime season, so if you like apples, we will have plenty. We will also have cider this weekend and we still have a very good supply of honey. See you this weekend!
