Unfortunately, due to the severe weather and very early spring our orchards have sustained significant crop loss. In light of these facts students will only be able to pick a quarter peck bag of apples from our apple boxes and not from the trees. This is just as disappointing to us as it is to you. Thank you for your understanding.
