Fruit Update Important Notice
– The farm is now closed for the 2011 season. We thank all who came,
and hope they had an enjoyable and fruit-filled experience. The summerıs drought, then Hurricane
Irene and the recent wet weather affected apple quality and therefore
subsequent availability. All
considered we did have a good season with the blueberries, peaches and other
fruit. It is always a joy meeting
new people, seeing old customers and having the youth groups visit the farm. The winds, rain and storm surge from Hurricane Irene are
now 2011 history here on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. The cleanup and repair to property
continues. Here at our fruit
farm in Hacks Neck, the house and other buildings came through Hurricane
Irene without damage. Yes, we
had water in the house basement, several trees down and much fruit drop and
damage. However, we did not lose
electrical power thanks to our great A&N Electric Cooperative and some
luck. Click here
for Irene photos. If you have any questions or comments, please call
(757-442-7287) or email <fosterjg@esva.net>. Finally to all, we wish you a most enjoyable Merry
Christmas or holiday season, and happy New Year. Updated (12/24/11). |
