We have completed the picking of the WILLIAM'S PRIDE apple.  We have them available in our store in 5 lb. bags.  We also have seconds available in this variety as well.  The seconds are in 10 lb bags.  The  WILLIAMS PRIDE apple is a large red all purpose apple which makes a wonderful apple sauce.

We are opening U-Picking on Labor Day, Monday, September 6.  We have the ENTERPRISE APPLE available and possibly some YORKS that are just starting to ripen. The ENTERPRISE is an excellent winter storage apple, reddish green in color and a white flesh.  This apple  will keep for up to 6 months in the home refrigerator.  Seconds are always available in 10 lb. bags @ .50 a lb.  I have a wide range of varieties.

The Yorks are a well known pie apple and the old timers say it is the tastiest  after the first frost.  So pick them now and keep them to mellow.

We have sugar-free apple butter and peach butter available in 8 and 16 oz. sizes, and a  limited amount of sugar-free Red Plum Jelly  and sugar-free Peach Jam, all made from our home grown fruits. I use Stevia and Xylitol as a sweetener. Xylitol is more expensive and is used cup-for-cup in sugar substitution. This product is also a natural sweetener, but does have just a few calories. Stevia has no calories and 1/4 teaspoon equals 1 cup of sugar. Both products are safe for diabetics and may be purchased at our country store.

We also carry apple roll ups and apple chips and a new product called "Sandy's Chewy Apple Bar".  All our jams and jelly, butters and apple products are made in our commercial kitchen.

We always have hand-milled vegetarian soaps for sale.

Our store also carries over 30 health food products including an assortment of sugar-free cookbooks.

We have a nice assortment of alpaca scarves (some are hand woven) and four styles of hats, dress socks, and several varieties of alpaca boot SOCKS for outdoor winter wear. We also have ALPACA PELT TEDDY BEARS, as well as MEN's and WOMEN's sweaters, shawls, and sofa throws. I've sent our sheared fiber to a mill in Maine and just received several dozen gloves in men's and women's sizes.

We also have king-, queen- and twin-sized blankets available as well as Ladies' capes in an assortment of colors, ruanas, pliegues that can be worn with jeans or a dressy outfit and several unique shawls with hand embroidery. The Pregos and Pliegues are one-size-fits-all. Prices on alpaca products range from $4.50 to $300.

New last year was our unique  tote bag made from braided quilters fabric and alpaca yarn. It is large and beautiful. Great for knitters and for those that crochet. See a photo on our alpaca clothes/fiber page (link at left).

For those knitters, we have an assortment of yarn in FINGERLING, SPORT and BULKY weights available.

If you are a spinner, we carry many natural colors in roving as well as fiber right off the alpaca if you want to do your own carding. Be sure to check out our multi color cria roving. This is the softest alpaca fiber that can be produced. It comes from the alpacas very first shearing.
