Happy Halloween!!

We hope everyone had a happy and safe Halloween.  We sure had a happy one here on the farm and trick-or-treating in Fayetteville.  It was a bit chilly and wet, but it could have been much worse.

Thanks to all of you who came and visited us this fall.  Sorry the apple crop was in short supply, but mother nature can have her way when she wants.  Lets all pray for an actual winter this year and a nice spring next.  We don't need to have an extended fall like we did last winter.

We still have a few apples left to sell in the Apple House with 100% fresh apple cider, and home made grapevine Christmas trees (made to order).  We can also offer a variety of Watkins products and some Fall and Christmas themed gift items too.  If it is a grapevine Christmas tree you are looking for, please give us a call to put an order in.

Thanks again and we will see you soon,

Happy Fall

What a wonderful Fall day today.  The Sun is shining with a gentle breeze and temperature is just right.  This is the perfect weather to jump in your car and come see us.

We can still offer Golden Delicious for you to pick-your-own.  There is a verity of apples to choose from in the Apple House too.  The tractor and wagon rides are running for your enjoyment Saturdays and Sundays 1pm - 6pm.

The tents are set up too.  The smaller tent has all the pumpkins and the larger tent has the new straw maze for the youngsters.  Come, stay awhile, and enjoy the our farm.

Thanks,
A&M Farm

Fall is Near!

The weather has been hot and humid the last few days, but the weather man says we are going to have some rain and a cool down soon after.  I don't know about you, but I am ready to Fall to arrive.

The Jonathon are being picked and we have them in the Apple House to sell.  We are allowing customers to pick their own Jonathon from the pick-your-own orchard too.  The Gala apples are still available along with some pears too.

I took a walk thru the pumpkin patch a couple days ago and saw a bunch on nice and orange pumpkins.  We will be picking those real soon to have the ready for Fall decoration and Halloween jack-o-lanterns.

Regards,

Last Peach

We sold the last of our peaches today.  Thanks to all who purchased the peaches and we hope you enjoyed them.

We will be going strong in apples real soon.

We do have a lot of green beans to pick, the tomatoes and grapes are right behind, and the pumpkin crop looks real good.  There will be plenty of jack-o-lanterns for Halloween.

See you soon,
