We're open Saturdays and Sundays, 1 PM to 6 PM, until Christmas. Right now in October, you can "pick your own" chestnuts; later we'll have them ready to sell, fresh off the farm.
We'll teach you "how" if you're not familiar.
They're picked up off the ground, very easy to find right now. Last year at our Fall Open House (Oct. 15 this year!!) we had a bunch of pretty small kids collecting chestnuts; and in spite of the burrs, they had a wonderful time.
And - we will always have a fire going. We'll show you how to "roast them on an open fire"; and we have free marshmallows for kids - and amazingly - free marshmallow sticks. Actual sticks, not steel wire...
Fall color season is here now - in the early stages; you'll need to walk around a bit to find something like this - but you're entirely welcome to wander.
This year the maples are not turning the simple traditional colors right away; the strange growing year is giving us some non-traditional patterns; also gorgeous.
We have LOTS more to see- and buy; our hybrid pecans (available nowhere else) - wool, wood of every kind you can think of, for any purpose- apple, chestnut, maple - for turning or anything else. And you can arrange to buy plants for next year now, too.
Come and see - and stay!
