Customized gift baskets can be created for special days such as birthdays and Christmas or simply as a way to say thank you for that friend that let you stay the weekend.  

Tours of the orchard are available for schools and other small groups.  Apple season tours are popular with school children and involve an educational walking tour of the orchard (weather permitting), apple grading equipment, cold storage, and the market itself.  Children learn about apples from trees to packing.   Photos are encouraged!  All students leave with something special.  Booking a tour in each season provides a personal glimpse at the entire fruit lifecycle.   Springtime reveals beautiful blossoms and honey bees at work.  Summer brings peaches and grapes ready for harvest.  Fall's apple harvest is the last big hurrah before nature begins slowing down.  A tour during winter months reveals that pruning is a necessary discipline for trees so that they will bear fruit in the future.
