we grow two different varieties of plums—vision plums and stanley plums. both plums are good for eating as is, for pies, desserts, jams, jelly, canning and bread. we usually have plums when we open for our fall picking season, but the season is much shorter than for apples
Paula Red
a late summer apple that has a solid red blush color. this all-purpose apple is slightly tart. after being picked for a month, it becomes quite soft
Raspberries
we have a limited number of fall red raspberries during the month of september and early october for pick your own. we also take some to the ann arbor farmers' market
Empire
a firm and crispy apple with a sweet-tart flavor. it is a cross between a mcintosh and a red delicious and is excellent for salads, baking, and cooking. it cooks firmer than a mcintosh but not as firm as an ida red or rome
Gooseberries
gooseberries are a small green tart berry (about the size of a grape) that grows on a bush. if left on the bush long enough, they turn pink. our gooseberries ripen at the same time as our tart cherries and are available to pick during the month of july. typically the season lasts just a short time, so don’t miss out. gooseberries are typically used for baking
