We also planted our tomato plants in the greenhouse this week, which was a lovely place to work at a balmy 80-some degrees as the winter winds blew outside.  These are the tomatoes that we all look forward to ripening in May and giving us back that fresh tomato taste that we missed over the winter.    We planted a few extras that we will have for sale later this spring, so keep that in mind if you want plants.

While we stay busy in the winter with maintenance and trimming, we also take some time to reflect as we plan for the next season.  So now I really need your help, would you please click here (Do a right click and open the link) and take a few minutes and complete this survey so that we can have the important input of our customers?  Thank you in advance and we look forward to seeing you in a few months when asparagus gets ready!  Meanwhile, stay safe and warm.

Our final day for 2009 will be this Saturday, open 9 -5, for sales of our remaining apples.   Forbrandy and wine sales and sampling, the Brandy House will be open on Saturdays only, from 1 – 4.
On behalf of our family, we wish all of you a good holiday season, and thank you for your business. I would especially like to thank everyone for supporting me as I returned to the farm this year.  The opportunity I had to interact with such great customers was very rewarding and gratifying.
The farm is now into a winter maintenance, trimming and rest mode….but before we know it, it will be time to open the seed catalogs and think about getting the greenhouse going.
As always, I welcome your input and suggestions about our farm and market.  If there is something you would like us to do different or consider, please email me at coreylakeorchards@gmail.com.
All the best until we see you next season,

Beth
