Come on up to Vermont for Apple Picking at our favorite orchard- 5 minutes from the Dorset Pond House! The views are spectacular and the apples
🍎 amazing!

BETTER THAN EXPECTED

Very good turnout for our opening weekend - saw lots of familiar faces. We toured the orchard yesterday and saw there are still good Macintosh - especially on the 83 year old trees.

We also saw that there were more Honeycrisps , Cortlands, and Macouns that we thought - SO, this weekend (September 16 & 17) we will open up for picking these varieties as well as the Macintosh and Galas.

With the reduced crop from the freeze, this will be your main chance to get some Honeycrisps - not as plentiful as most years, but still some out there - especially inside the trees. Pick the ones with the most color.

The later ripening Crimson Crisp crop also looks better than we thought and we now plan to open them for picking on both September 23’rd and 30’th weekends. The last September 30’th weekend will also have some Northen Spy’s and Golden Delicious.

So come come see us and help get the crop picked - the donut crew will be cranking out donuts and there is cider and maple syrup.
