We still have many 'GoldRush' and some 'Enterprise' apples for sale.
These apples taste much better than any sold in grocery stores, and
are great for baking as well as fresh eating. I give taste samples. Apple prices are listed in the previous blog post.
until late May or early June.
We still have cracked 'Kanza' pecans for sale, now until about June. My husband Bill cracks more pecans in small batches as the bags of cracked pecans sell, since they store best in-shell. Once cracked, pecans should be kept in the freezer for long-term storage of up to 3 years, or in the fridge if they'll be used within the next 2 to 3 months.
The price for pecans
is still $15.05 per bag + tax. Each bag has the equivalent of 6 pounds of in-shell pecans, and is weighed to 4 pounds after cracking. When you pick them out, you get at least 3 pounds of nutmeats.
Many recipes featuring apples and pecans are posted as Notes on our
Facebook page, Brendas Berries.
For
payment, we accept cash or checks, but NO credit cards or debit
cards. Please bring your checkbook or enough cash to cover the
amount of apples and pecans you'll buy.
From Dec. 1 to May 31, we're open
by appointment, as the sidebar at left says. That means to phone 620-597-2450 a day in
advance, and leave a message on the answering machine saying
your name and the day and approximate time you're coming.
The
phone rings in the house, and I check for messages when I come
in from working in the orchards or sorting apples in the sales building. If
you wait to call until on your way here, I probably won't get
your message before you come, unless it is very cold and I'm working in the house, as I am now.
