Check out this amazingness happening in the Valley today! Right after you see our amazing Fall Parade of Home at 1641 Rushing Stream Circle in Wasilla, head out and support local! 😍🤩
THIS IS IT! I can hardly believe this is our final weekend for the Big Lake Farmer's Market and our little Farmstand! And it's going to be the best day! We have SO MUCH going on at the farm today (Saturday) from noon - 6.
Just a quick point of clarification, Even if you don't have tickets to the Alaska Apple Festival (sold out), we've got tons for you to see and do! No entrance fee, just come hungry and ready to check things out!
New this week at the farmstand:
APPLE C***R ICE CREAM FLOATS! - we tried these things for the first time this week and I can't even believe how amazing they are. Oh mercy! SOOO yummy!
HOT SPICED C***R! We aren't making a ton just because we aren't sure how much we will sell - first come, first served.
Also this week at the farmstand:
FRESH RAW APPLE C***R made right on the farm - this isn't old, watered down juice
APPLE C***R DOUGHNUTS
FRESH ALASKA GROWN VEGGIES
APPLES BY THE 20 # BOX - all organic, regenerative, and apeel free.
