Harvest 2024

​

Our vegetable harvest is moving along quite well with adequate moisture.  The garlic and onion harvest is complete.  Tomatoes have been amazing.  Two new varieties, Thunderbird and Camaro, have simply been wonderful.  We planted two stages of tomatoes over 4,000 plants which should keep us in tomatoes until frost.  String beans and summer squash are planted every three weeks until early September.  Our product displays, which we modified after attending the Mid-Atlantic Fruit & Vegetable show, has dramatically increased our customer satisfaction.

​

Apple harvest has started with Zestar and Ginger Gold.  Honeycrisp and Gala will follow.  By mid-September we will have Macoun, Empire, Crispin Crisp, and Ruby Rush.  We have planted three new varieties, Jonaprince, Melrose, and Pink Lady which in the near future will fill up the month of October.  Pick your own will start Saturday, August 31, and will be available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday through late October, weather and crop permitting.

​

Our sale of beef, pork, chicken, and turkey continues to grow.  Our chicken is now offered as whole and boneless parts.  We currently are taking orders for Thanksgiving turkeys which will be sold frozen as in the past.  Our all-natural hormone-free birds cook so much faster than a “factory” bird.  Currently, our turkeys are enjoying the new solar lights that keep them calmer.  Our angus beef sales continue to amaze our customers with the quality.

​

As our grandkids continue to grow, they are taking an active role in helping our business.  One of our student employees is off to college to study beef cattle production.

​

The Christmas trees have enjoyed the moisture this season, and we will have a great supply of trees to cut.  Once again, we will begin tree cutting on Saturday, November 23, 2024
