The weather's gotten colder and as we do every year, we've moved all retail operations away from the road down to our winter sales room. It's not hard to find- just follow the signs.
Hours will be as follows:
M-F: 9am-5pm
Sat: 10am-4pm
Sun: 11am-4pm
Unfortunately, this also means that cider donuts are finished for the year. However, we still have plenty of varieties of apples, pears, fresh-pressed cider, honey, maple syrup, straw and apple firewood.
If you have any questions, please call (845) 255-0693.

Happy Thanksgiving!
It's that time of the year again. If you're planning your Thanksgiving feast, don't forget the apples for some homemade apple sauce (that canned stuff just isn't the same). And for dessert, what could be better than hot apple pie? For watching the football game (or the parade), how about some fresh-pressed cider for hot cider toddys? (a less complicated recipe here)
The roadstand is open with regular hours everyday this week until Thanksgiving day. We'll be closed Thursday- reopening Friday and over the weekend. We're still making cider donuts fresh daily, but not for long, so get them while they last!

Wrapping Up the 2009 Season
Hope everyone had a great Halloween weekend! For us, the end of October means the end of our 2009 Pick-Your-Own season. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it a great one!
Of course, we'll have our apples for sale all through the winter. We'll be in the Roadstand through November, after which we move around back to the winter showroom. Due to the time change, the hours for the roadstand are slightly shorter: 9:30am to 5pm daily. All apple varieties are available as well as fresh-pressed cider, honey, maple syrup and we'll continue making donuts daily until Thanksgiving.
Any questions? Call us! (845) 255-0693.
Once again, thanks to everyone who made this such a memorable PYO season, and be sure to keep checking this blog throughout the year for updates and news from the farm!

Don't forget the Hot Mulled Cider!
The weather is definitely turning colder, reminding us that the harvest season won't last forever. Pick-Your-Own will be open this weekend as usual. At this point, we do plan on being open for Halloween weekend. If there are any changes, they will be announced here when the decision is made.
All varieties are ready for picking. We still have LOTS of Fuji, plenty of Empires and Red Delicious, and loads of others as well. If you're looking for it, it's probably here.
Once again, hours remain the same. Any questions, please call the farm during regular business hours.

Thanks for a great weekend!
Columbus Day Weekend was a big success! Thanks to everyone who came out and visited us on the farm. We had some amazing weather almost all weekend and despite the big crowd, everyone had an great time and picked plenty of apples.
Columbus Day is usually the pinnacle of the year around here, but we sometimes forget that we have at least two more solid weeks for picking. This coming weekend will be a great one for Pick-Your-Own. The weather is just brisk enough to remind you that a cup of hot mulled cider would go GREAT with that doughnut. Not to mention the warm apple crisp a la mode from the ice cream stand.
All varieties are ripe for picking now and there are still plenty on the trees to choose from. Highlights include all the late-season Fuji, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Macoun, Mutsu (aka Crispen), Ida Red and Staymen (aka Winesap).
Don't forget about your Halloween Jack-O-Lantern! We've still got lots of great pumpkins of all sizes out in the patch, as well as around the roadstand for you to pick from.
Hours for everything remain the same. If you have any questions, please call. (845) 255-0693

Notes about Columbus Day Weekend
In case you weren't aware (but I'm sure you were), this weekend is Columbus Day Weekend. That means that we'll be open Saturday, Sunday AND Monday this week! Hours for Monday are the same (10-5), and everything that's usually available on the weekend will be available on Monday, as well. The weather looks great, and all varieties are ready to pick!
Please be aware- This is a VERY busy weekend on the farm. Please be considerate of the farm and your fellow pickers! A little patience and common courtesy goes a long way. We'll see you in the orchard!

Attention Chestnut Lovers
The Hudson Valley was pummeled with high winds yesterday. It didn't make it very fun climbing ladders to pick apples, but what it DID do was blow virtually every chestnut out of the trees. What was a pretty bare lawn last weekend has been covered in chestnuts! Take a look:
Nevermind walking around looking for them...you'll have a hard time not stepping on them! But don't wait! They'll be all picked through this weekend, I'm sure.

Chestnuts?
There seem to be a few early chestnuts falling this week. Most of the burs are still green and holding strong on the tree, but we've found a few on the ground for any anxious chestnut enthusiasts.
PLEASE NOTE! If the chestnuts are still in the trees THEY ARE NOT READY YET! PLEASE do not try to knock chestnuts out of the tree or attempt to climb the trees! They will fall when they're ready.

U-PICK STRAWBERRY: U-pick strawberry season ended on Sunday, July 5. To those of you who came out to pick, thank you. This was probably one of our strangest, wettest seasons we have ever had.
The next u-pick at the farm will be apples in September.
FARM MARKET: The farm market continues to remain open with a few strawberries, fresh picked raspberries, our own cherries, blueberries and green beans.
ICE CREAM SHOP: Now that raspberries are in, it's hard to say which is better-a shake made with fresh raspberries or one made with strawberries? Either way, you will enjoy! The shop hours are Sunday through Thursday noon to 9pm and Friday and Saturdays we stay open until 10pm.
If you have any questions, give us a call at (845) 255-0693.

U-pick berry info:
Open daily 8am to noon. Thursday and Friday evening 6pm-8pm. The cost is $1.95. It is important that you stop by the farm market and check the u-pick sign for the patch of the day. We are working out of three different patches so that we can offer you the best picking.
FARM MARKET: OPEN DAILY 9:30 -5:30. Now selling blueberries, raspberries and cherries along with strawberries.
ICE CREAM: OPEN DAILY NOON TO 9PM AND STAY OPEN LATE (TIL 10PM) ON FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS. NEW PALTZ FIREWORKS SATURDAY NIGHT! WE WILL BE STAYING OPEN LATE!
