St. Andre Orchard

This week we have blackberries and apples for picking. On Monday, we will not be open due to the extreme heat. However, for the rest of the week (July 20-25), there should be some great picking weather (especially on Wednesday and Thursday). We will not be open for the first few days next week, so if you want to come and pick, now is a great time. We also have blackberries already picked if you just want to pick them up. We still have pristine apples, and a few other varieties are now ripe as well.

We will have blackberries and pristine apples available for u-pick this week. I should be around every day this week (Tuesday, July 13-Sunday, July 19). Just message, text, or call ahead so I know that you are coming. The Triple Crown blackberries are in full force now, so there are lots of blackberries.

We have blackberries and pristine apples ready for picking. The cold in March may have ruined the stone fruit, the but the weather has been perfect for blackberries. The apples are also 2 weeks early this year. Pristine apples are a yellow dessert apple good for eating, baking, and sauce. My schedule is flexible this week, so I can be here in the orchard any day (July 6 through 12), including in the evenings. Just message me or respond to this post to let me know when you are coming.

Here is an update on the orchard: later this year we will have upick blackberries and apples (in a couple weeks for blackberries and around a month for apples). Unfortunately, all of the apricots and plums froze and nearly all of the peaches.
