TODAY IN THE ORCHARD

Two apples in the BRC

We spread out across the state today delivering the last 2024 CSA apple shares plus the extra storage apples that members had ordered. If all goes as planned, Khris and Lizzie Hogg will take it over the CSA in 2025, and we will move on to other projects. The CSA started as a one-year trail - we never anticipated that it would grow to 170 shareholders and take over our falls for 16 years. We loved all the rare apple fans that we met, their excitement for the new and weird, and the apple love that spread to 4 states through the CSA We are delighted that it will continue on in capable and enthusiastic hands. Back on the farm I put on tree-guards in the BRC. It seemed like the best place in the world to be on a day when others were contemplating the election.
