Pumpkin Patch Fun Time
The Great Hill Country Pumpkin Patch is a wonderful celebration of the harvest season. The event focuses on old-fashioned family fun that boasts the blessings of earth’s bountiful harvest. Fresh picked apples, figs, and persimmons are joined by the likes of dried corn stalks, a large variety of harvest squash, dried decorative corn, gourds and a wonderful selection of pumpkins. Select from Casper, Cinderella, Fairy Tale, Rumbo and Blue Pumpkins, just to name a few of the many varieties we offer all at great market prices. You can even buy a bale of hay!
DATES: Be sure to put us on your fall calendar. We are open every Saturday, Sunday and Monday in October. Gates open at 10 am and close at 3:30 pm. Grounds close at 4:30 pm. Admission is $5.00 per person.

Pick-Your-Own Cancelled for Rest of the Year
It pains me to say that the continuing drought has caused us to stop watering the apple trees in the orchard to save the trees in the nursery. This means that all the late season fruit is beginning to die on the trees. The late season Granny smith and Punk Lady apples will not be available this year.
Please continue to pray for rain.
School Tours of Pumpkin Patch
The Great Hill Country Pumpkin Patch is open for school tours every Friday and some Thursdays during October. Tours are by reservations only.

Pick-Your-Own Update
We are out of apples for the month of August. The high heat and drought created some sweet apples but the crop was small.
We have some Alma figs ripening from day to day. Please call the Orchard for availability at 830-589-2588.
The Granny Smith apples will be ripe in mid September and Pink Lady apples in October.
Oriental Persimmons will also be ready in September and October.

May is a great time to experience our all natural, locally grown and made jellies and jams. Apple Butter, Apple Jalapenio and Blubonnet Jam are just a few of our favorites.
