Fall Harvest Festival 2019 in Brentwood

Fall Harvest Festival 2019

CSA members -  bring your family, bring your friends, and come on out to the farm to help us celebrate the Fall Harvest!  Here's what's in store for the day: U-Pick Apples - Stroll through the orchard to pick your own basket of our crisp and tangy Pink Lady apples. Apple pie, applesauce, apple crisp or apple butter anyone?!  U- pick apples will be $3.00 per pound.  Pumpkins - Find your just right jack-o-lantern for carving in our mini pumpkin patch.   Cooking Demos - Chef Mario will walk you through how to make a delicious and healthy grain salad featuring our Warren pears, Sonora wheat berries, and pomegranates. We will provide a recipe and samples for participants but you'll definitely want to make a big batch at home after you taste this salad! Cooking demos will be held at 11:15 am and 1:15 pm and last approximately 30 minutes.  Farm Tours - Take a guided walking tour through our orchard with Farmer Al. Learn about Frog Hollow history, our pest management strategies, our compost program and what makes our farm regenerative.  This is a great opportunity to learn about how we grow your fruit and get all of your burning questions answered! Tours depart at 11:45 am and 1:45 pm and last approximately 1 hour.  Craft & Worm Station - Check out some of our hard working red wriggler worms from our vermicompost and make your own worm to take home.  Music - Our friends Corbin and Morey will be back playing their toe-tapping tunes in the packing shed.  Pack a lunch or enjoy empanadas - Pack your lunch to enjoy a picnic in our orchard or relax in our open-air packing shed and lawn for lunch.  We will have a limited amount of savory empanadas for purchase at the event. Mini Farmers Market -  We will have a mini farmer's market set up with our conserves, sun-dried fruit, granola, crackers, sweet tartlets, savory empanadas and more. If it's hot, we'll probably have our amazing ice cream sandwiches and popsicles too!  ***Please note this event is for members of Frog Hollow CSA and guests that will be joining their party.
