Jonagold apples are one of my favorite eating apples. They are crisp, juicy, and favored by people who like Honey Crisp. The Honey Crisp are all gone, but the Jonagold are a great apple.
We usually start making cider in mid-September when the fall apples get ripe. I will post it as soon as we have some.
Here is what we have at the orchard right now.
A skillet of fried Jonathan apples. Serve on vanilla ice cream, pancakes, or stuff them in a flour tortilla and saute until browned and crisp!
- Canning pears
- small, sweet, eating pears
- Asian pears
- White peaches
- Jonagold apples
- Gala apples
- Pippin apples
- Laura Red apples
- Jonathan apples
- McIntosh apples
The farmers markets may not have all varieties and container size is limited. To learn what is available at the orchard before you come, please call the salesroom 8:00 to 5:00 at 256-437-9254.

Jonathan and McIntosh apples are ripe! This is what we are selling now.
Fall is coming! We are coming to the end of peaches and grapes. This may be the last weekend for them. There will be peaches available at the Farmers Markets this weekend, but only a small number of white peaches.
Gala apples are just now starting to come in! Galas are one of the sweetest eating apples and are a favorite of families with children and people who prefer sweet instead of tart apples. The gala apples don’t last long.
The good news is we still have freestone peaches, seedless grapes, Early Gold (June) apples, and pears. The bad news is that the nectarines are finished for the season.
