The apples are smiling! It's time to begin bringing them home. This weather may slow them down just a little, but in a week to ten days we'll have to get them down. Sally and I put tape around the tree and signs so that hopefully no one else will decide to pick them. If it works for your schedule, how about August 30 to do the major pick? If you can get there sooner, you can pick smaller amounts. Gravensteins don't keep a really long time so you'll need to be deciding what to do with them.
I picked these yesterday, and we'll probably get more on Sunday afternoon.
Happy Eating!
