Adam — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 15:30:27 +0000

After a very intense demand during our first two weeks, all of the Honeycrisp are now picked and sold. There are still great apples to be had, including Macintosh, Cortland,Gala, Empire, Jonathan, Golden Delicious, as well as the later varieties that are not quite ready (Granny Smith, Mutsu, Cameo, Idared, Jonagold, Golden Russet). These apples will be ready approximately 2 weeks early this year due to the early and warm Spring season.

We hope to see you soon!
