Empire Apples 2009

Liberty View Farm Certified Naturally Grown Apples ( Organically Grown Apples )


Well Harvest time is here! The apples are better than I thought! Come and get your Empire apples right now!


Our Empire Apples are ready to be picked

Well we had snow.
The bad news is that almost all of our flowers and a lot of veggies were killed in the frost.
The good news is that our Empire Apples taste terrific!
In fact I had a Waldorf School class here and one of the mothers said "these are the best apples I have ever tasted!" To which I told her that I am trying to relearn everyone how we were conditioned in the 20th century to eat bleached white bread, factory produced white eggs, and to eat fruit that was bland with very little nutrients so as to benefit a few huge companies. It makes it much easier for these huge wholesalers to pick fruit before they are ripe so they can store them for a year by the time you eat them. We need to eat more seasonally and we will all then learn to better appreciate all the hard work farmers like me go through and not take for granted one morsel of food that lays on our tongue.

So come this weekend or the next to our farm and taste the best apples!
It might be cool but inside our tin barn we have lots of warm food and cider and great company!
Pick up some kale, winter squash, comfort food & do not forget about Rene's old fashioned apple baked goods!
Fresh-air good healthy food and wonderful people
- buy local buy fresh!

Angie will be Saturday with her cooking delights...
Saddie will be here with her wonderful home made comfort food this Sunday!


Liberty View farm is open from 10 AM - 6 PM on the weekends and by appointment only during the week. We need appointments since we are a small farm and do the farmers market in the city during the week but also deliver to other organic farms and health stores. This is our busiest time of year!

When you come to harvest your apples from "your leased tree" we will escort you out in the orchard and show you to it! It is that simple. We assign them when you arrive because there are a lot of things we are thinking about like: we want you to enjoy some privacy we like to have you pick a tree that is not right on top of some one else, if you have little people we like to have them away from the parking meadow, if you are on crutches we of course would like to have you as close as possible to your parked automobile. Remember; please park in rear meadow behind old metal barns - follow signs. No running, no using ladders (we have pole pickers) watch where you walk - this is a working farm. Keep in mind that where there is high grass that means there is usually a divit or hole, be careful where you walk and take care of walking thru gardens.. Please also stay out of animal pens and ponds and children must be accompanied by an adult at all times. And PLEASE no throwing anything in ponds. Bring bags, boxes and cameras. We also insist that you bring SMILES! Directions on our website Libertyviewfarm.biz

Our Empire Apples are ready to harvest in October and are best when they have been hit by at least one frost.
