ORGANIC FARMCATION

I truly am blessed to have parents who own a farm.  I have an earlier post about this farm, but every time we go it is a new adventure and we do different things.  Here is the latest adventure at the LEWIS FARM.
One of the many loaded apple trees.  

Trays loaded with apples for drying.  The dryer holds 12 trays. The trays are 2' x 4'.

Sliced apples that are going to be used to make canned apple pie filling.

DRIED FRUIT!! YUM! APPLES, NECTARINES, and APRICOTS.

Dried apples.

Apple sauce.

Putting the sliced apples in jars. Later the caramel sauce is added for pie filling. Sorry no finished picture of the canned pie filling.

Even the horse loves apple season.

My youngest said, "I didn't know horses eat spaghetti too!" We couldn't convince her that it was apple skin.


Homemade apple juice.


To top off a perfect farmcation stay, my mom saved the last of the fresh peaches and made peach tort pie!  TO DIE FOR!!!
Last but not least homemade salsa.  It was a packed weekend of organic goodness!!!
