We are very excited to be starting a new season! It has been a very long, cold winter and we are ready for springtime weather and fresh fruit & veggies. We imagine you are too!!
Over the winter, we had a new website designed, and we are absolutely tickled with the final product. Please book mark it, and reference it frequently. It has a beautiful pictures that accompany our history, growing practices, crops, and recipes using Kuhn Orchards' fruit and vegetables. The website is
www.KuhnOrchards.com.
We have 2 more opportunities to purchase apples and other farm products through our
"Winter Produce Delivery Program." We have a delivery this Saturday, April 11th and again on Saturday, April 25th. Please see details below.
We'll see you at Market!

Winter Produce Delivery Program Survey
|
If you are a Winter CSA Member, or your purchased fruit and veggies from the A La Carte Webstore,
please take a moment to complete this survey. We utilized a new software to organize the CSA and Webstore orders, and we'd like to know how it worked for you. Thank you for your time and input!

What We've Been Up To
|
Spring time is a really busy time of the year for us. We have finished pruning our apple trees and are wrapping up our peach and plum trees. We have made new beds to plant our root crops and our alliums. Check out this
YouTube video as we work the ground and prep for planting. Today we are planting our Red Dutch Shallots (pictured below).
Hopefully we'll get some video clips of planting trees later this month. Planting trees is a relatively slow task, but when you turn around and look at the rows of tiny "feathered" sticks, it's a pretty proud and accomplished feeling.

We look forward to seeing you at the Farmers Market!
