Autumn’s Bounty

Saturday, October 4, 2008

The apple season is in full swing at The Orchard, 1120 N. Highway 99.

The Orchard has early, mid and late-season apples available, said owner Bob Karr. The Orchard had a good summer with plenty of moisture, Karr said.

“We’re having a really, really good year,” Karr said Friday morning. “The customer flow has been pretty good so far and quite a few people came to visit and were given some tours.”

Karr said products available for purchase at The Orchard are a large variety of apples, a few peaches, apple cider and apple cider slushes. Some other products such as cheese and pecans will be available in about a week, Karr said.

The Orchard is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday and 1 to 6 p.m. on Sundays. People wishing to take a tour of The Orchard are asked to call ahead at 343-8480.
