OUR 2008 APPLE SEASON HAS ENDED. WE ARE COMPLETELY SOLD OUT OF CIDER AND ALL OUR APPLE PRODUCTS. SIGN UP BELOW FOR THE RB ORCHARD UPDATE LIST. BE THE FIRST TO KNOW THE LATEST NEWS AT THE ORCHARD IN 2009 VIA EMAIL!!!








EACH YEAR WE OPEN APPROXIMATELY MID SEPTEMBER AND CLOSE LATE OCTOBER


WE FEATURE THE FOLLOWING PRODUCTS


OUR OWN, PRESSED ON PREMISES, RAW FRESH CIDER!


Our freshly pressed cider announces the advent of fall. It is available in gallon, half gallon and individual portions of 12 oz. We also keep in stock some already frozen cider. Available in half gallon size only.





DRIED APPLE RINGS

Made fresh each night while we all sleep! A very popular addition to our product line, the recipe for which we developed and is uniquely ours.




DAILY FRESH BAKED APPLE CRISP

Apple Crisp is baked fresh daily. We offer two sizes, the family size that serves between six and eight, depending on how heavy handed your portions are, and the individual size. Take it home or come and have some here are the orchard. This sibling trio makes it a family tradition every fall!





APPLECAKE

All we can say is yum! yum! A very moist and rich cake with apples and walnuts incorporated in the dough. Frosted with cream cheese icing. To insure your purchase of this item, advance ordering is advised as it is not as readily available as the crisp. Call or email one day ahead of pickup.




APPLE BUTTER--SOLD OUT


If you are not familiar with apple butter, it is a jam type spread that is delicious on toast, bagels or with a peanut butter sandwich! It can also be used as a flavoring in cake icings, fruit dips, added to sauces for cooking chicken or pork--use your imgination! Perhaps the term 'apple butter' might have derived from the fact that this particular fruit jam spreads like butter.




APPLE SYRUP

You will love the mild apple flavor of this syrup atop your morning pancakes or waffles. It is also a great flavoring to add into chicken or pork meat sauces. Try it--you'll like it!




PUMPKIN BUTTER & APPLE CINNAMON JELLY-- BOTH ARE SOLD OUT

The Pumpkin Butter is lightly flavored with cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg.

The Apple Cinnamon Jelly has a beautiful red color and makes your morning toast a feast! Kids love it.



APPLES THIS YEAR

We are excited to be using a new type of bag for the apples this year. The half peck and half bushel bags are a strong plastic with a cardboard bottom and handles at the top for easy carrying. In addition to being attractive and lightweight, making for your transport and handling easier, they are reuseable. We think you will agree that this bagging option is much better than boxes.

Golden Delicious--SOLD OUT

Fuji APPLE--SOLD OUT









OUR SHELVES ARE ALSO STOCKED WITH


Fruit Logs!
SOLD OUT

Cookbooks!
A kitchen library just isn't complete without an apple recipe only cookbook. This is the last year we will be featuring cookbooks. Two titles have sold out. We still have copies of the remaining title, "Totally Apples" that is perfect for holiday gift giving. Shaped like an apple and filled with yummy recipes, it makes a wonderful hostess gift or can be included in a gift basket.




During the 2008 season, we were pleased to see so many friends and families take us up on our offer to spend some time together at our orchard, picnicking or just meeting here to have some cider and crisp while visiting. It was an especially fun and exciting day when Crossroads Community Church from Ridgecrest visited about 100 strong to picnic and enjoy the fall weather in late September. Our facility is here for just that--your enjoyment with friends and family! Make it a new tradition for 2009. While reservations are not necessary, we would appreciate knowing about groups that plan to come that are in excess of 10 people.


WE ENJOYED YOUR VISIT IN 2008 AND LOOK FORWARD
TO SEEING YOU AGAIN IN 2009!








Hello Teachers!

With regrets, our school tour program has been discontinued.
