* Given the exceptionally warm spring and two deep frosts thereafter, apples for picking directly off the trees will likely be available only opening weekend. These apples will be supplemented with bushels of pre-picked apples form another Wisconsin-based, family-owned orchard as long as our loyal customers are interested. Please find these pre-picked bushels throughout the orchard at the bases of our trees.
We look forward maintaining support of your family traditions as you continue to support our family orchard. We are deeply saddened by the loss of our crop this spring due to the blossoms freezing and appreciate your continued patronage. We hope you understand just how crucial your support and hard-earned dollar allocation continues to be. Especially in low-yield years, our trees and grounds incur both operating and health expenses despite a failed crop.
DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE MAGNIFICENT, THRIVING SUNFLOWER FIELDS TO BEGIN NEW TRADITIONS while you shop the Orchard Store and enjoy all our on-site amenities.
