Apple Stories
It all started with “the Original Twelve.” Our little adventure to grow some of our favorite apples that we have discovered. Almost all the varieties are over 100 years old. We hope to have our first test crop in the fall of 2021. Come by and see us and taste some apple varieties that were almost lost and forgotten.

Late fall we got a great lesson from our friend, Jerry Briggs, on how to shape and prune the trees. It will be fun to see what our preparation work looks like this fall as we hope to have some test apples.
