Farm Update July 25

Greetings,

Emily took some pictures around the farm this week. I think some of them were pretty nice.

Like this one:

And this one:

I’m not sure how she managed to get the date printed on the pictures. I’m also not sure how to get it off of the pictures.

Do your kids do that? You know, change the ringer on your cell phone, or configure electronics in some strange way and you can’t figure out how to undo it? Tom and I spent 20 minutes last night trying to get messages off of his phone after Jane “adjusted” a few things.

On to the news:

We are picking cantaloupes. Lots of them. One at a time.

 

Peach Orchard Update:

U-pick peaches are scheduled for 4 weekends, starting tomorrow. Friday, Saturday, and Sundays 8am-1pm. We really thought the Red Havens would be ready to pick this weekend, but they still need a few more days. I recommend you wait until next week to come out if possible. Sorry, for the inconvenience, but I think the picking will be much better next weekend. There are a few blueberries scattered about the field here at Leager Road and you are welcome to hunt and gather during u-pick hours.

But wait! There’s more…

We have Lapp’s baked goods for the weekends. Lots of great pies, dinner rolls, sticky buns, and whoopie pies, of course, arrive around 2pm on Friday afternoons. 

 

Don’t forget the ice cream and fresh fruit slushies!

 

Hope to see you soon!
