As you bring in the final harvests before any possible frosts, we have books on pickling/fermenting, jam making and root cellaring if needed. 

And if you need inspiration for the pie baking contest at Apple Fest this Sunday (at the Homestead), we have a few books featuring pie making.

Thanks to Mike Hebb, we now have a picnic table in our back field for all to enjoy ----- a quiet place to read, play, have a picnic.
