Support them please🍎🍏
We wanted to share a quick update as we continue working toward opening Labor Day weekend.
As many of you know, the late freeze took our entire peach and apple crop this year. The response to our last post was incredibly encouraging, and many of you asked how you could continue to support Stribling Orchard this season.
We are happy to say that plans are starting to come together.
🍎 We have apples lined up from Marker-Miller and are continuing to work on our fall apple supply. So "picking" this year will be from a bin.
🍯 Our market will have many of the things you know and love, including jellies, honey, Stribling Beef, and select bakery items.
🥩 Stribling Beef (https://striblingorchard.com/stribling-beef) is available now through our website for pickup at the orchard, with a variety of cuts and packages to choose from. When we are open to the public on weekends, we also plan to have beef available for purchase by the piece.
🎁 Gift certificates (https://striblingorchard.com/gift-cards) are also available through our website. They never expire and can be used this season or saved for a future visit. For those who asked how they could support us now, purchasing a gift certificate or ordering Stribling Beef are two very helpful ways to do that.
Our goal is to begin opening weekends starting Labor Day weekend and continue into the fall as supplies and plans allow.... aiming for October 12th. We expect to have most of our familiar friends and neighbors selling their wares as well.
This year will look a little different without our normal pick-your-own crop, but we are looking forward to welcoming everyone back to the orchard.
We’ll be sharing more details over the next few weeks as everything comes together.
Thank you again for all of the kind words, encouragement, and offers of support. It means a great deal to our family, and we hope to see many of you this fall.
