It’s time to open the doors and sell some apples to our fantastic customers! We have Paula Red apples at this time and some awesome fresh pressed unpasteurized cider to start the season. The cider is from cider apples and a little more tart than what you have come to expect from Cider Flats. I think you will like it and I’ll have a cider mix available to sweeten it if you so desire. The apples are taking on a beautiful red color and growing into what we have all been waiting for; a delicious MN homegrown apple!!
Unfortunately, we won’t be having the hay pile and corn box this year. It was a big attraction to unwanted visitors and needed to be removed. We did purchase a grain bin to replace the corn box and had great intentions of getting that on a cement floor, but summer whizzed by again and it’s still sitting in the middle of the yard and not ready. Sorry about that kids. We have also decided to discontinue offering making your own caramel apples; we didn’t sell enough to cover the cost of the caramel! Sorry about that kids – big and small! And last but certainly not least, we didn’t get a chance to plant pumpkins or squash with the wet spring and summer. We hope to be purchasing them from a local grower and will know more shortly. Keep your fingers crossed!
Raspberries are ripening up but the dreaded SWD bug is still around. There are many good berries waiting for you. Hope to see you this weekend. If not, have a safe weekend.
