EARLY WINTER 2023/2024

Check the Orchard Update link (to the right) for status on apple varieties, picking opportunities, the pumpkin crop, and other farm products.

We are now closed for the 2023 season. Thank you to our loyal customers! Enjoy the holidays, and stay safe.

CHRISTMAS TREES: Remember to send us a picture of your decorated REAL tree to enter our Facebook contest. Entry deadline is midnight on Dec. 25th.

PICK YOUR OWN APPLES: Apple picking is now over.

PUMPKINS: Pumpking pickins is now over.

BAKED GOODS: The bakery is now closed for the season. But to get your taste buds ready, our flavors for next year will include: apple, blueberry, cherry, peach, and rhubarb. Combinations, too, like apple rhubarb, apple cherry, cherry rhubarb, and apple blueberry. Later in the fall we'll add pumpkin and pecan pies. We can also bake you a smaller fruit crisp with the same filling and crumb topping, but no bottom crust. Pies can be unbaked as well (except pumpkin and pecan!), with the crumb already on top or in a separate bag. They freeze well - imagine enjoying a freshly baked fruit pie whenever you want! Baking instructions included.

GOSHEN MARKET: The Land of Goshen Community Market will reopen on Mother's Day weekend in 2024. The Goshen Winter Market is held on the third Saturday of the month, January through April, and features a limited selection of the regular season vendors. We won't be attending until May, but it's worth visiting anyway.

THE STORE: Our little brown on-farm store with the porch is now red and white! Although it has a new look, it still serves as our check-in and sales point on the farm when we're open.

NEW BUILDING: It's up! And big! And very red! You can't miss it. We're very pleased with the space it will give us, although it is taking us a while to get the interior the way we want it. Thank you, again, to all those who donated to our building fund! It's a big project. We will continue working out of our red store (with the porch) for the immediate future. We hope to be using space in the new shed in 2024.

The children's play area is currently closed.

As many of you already know, our iconic red apple barn (the main building) was completely destroyed by fire on May 4, 2014. Our market, bakery, cider operation, wreath making equipment, coolers, walk-in freezer (which contained hundreds of gallons of cider and many apple pies worth of filling), and countless other items were totally lost. With over thirty years in business, we had accumulated a lot of stuff, and guess where it was stored.

Just a note: the parking is free, the play area is free, the wagon ride is free, and the country ambiance is free. We are family owned and operated; our bakery goods are hand made on-site and our apples may not be as pretty as the store bought varieties - but they usually taste better. We aren't a big operation, but we put a lot of heart into making you feel at home. So take a break from reality, put down your iPhone, "Come visit us!"
