What a glorious Autumn we have been blessed by!

Were you able to get out to enjoy the Fall foliage of North Idaho? I truly believe the golden Larch that blanket our surrounding mountains rivals that of any East coast region. I'm grateful that we've had an extended Autumn season and while the chilly nights and rain have arrived, it gave us the time we all truly needed to transition from a busy summer season into the slower months. 

​

Here at the orchard we had two very successful History Harvest dinners, a meager harvest of apples that was utilized for our Autumn Orchard Tours and the harvest dinners, and a handful of Autumn Farmstands that have no doubt gotten our customers and die hard fans ready for that feeling of the holidays. October is over and the season of Thanks is upon us! While we are tempted by the Christmas holiday everywhere we go, here at our farm we relish in this particular time of year. Giving thanks for a busy season, reflection upon a challenging Spring and Summer, and hope and faith towards a restful winter and peaceful holiday season. If you've not yet signed up for our Orchard News, I cannot stress enough how helpful it will be for you in order to follow our events, special offerings, the holiday season and what Athol Orchards will be up to over the next couple of months.

Seiter's Apple Butter will be on it's way out of the Orchard Kitchen very soon- it will be available for pre-sale any day now! Head to our online orchard store to place your pre-order and secure yours. It is going to be in limited supply! 

​

Take some time in these cool rainy days and reflect upon 2024 with us. Drink the warm cozy drinks, cuddle in next to that woodstove and breathe in the season of rest. We hope to see you over these next several weeks at one of our upcoming farmstand dates!
