Cider's In Season At McConnells' Farm!

McConnells' Farm - "Antique" Cider Sign!
LFLF had a chance to run out to McConnells' Farm to pick up some sweet corn.  When we arrived, the sign on the counter said that apple cider was ready.  It's the first of the season for us ... yea!   We noticed the old cider sign on the building as we backed out to leave ...
But ... this is the beautiful fall display that greeted us on the front porch of the barn!

Lots of apples are ready now and we decided on an old favorite, Cortland.  This has been the apple of choice in the past when the family made applebutter .... 7 bushels of apples cooks down to about 70 - 75 quarts of applebutter!  I just settled for a small basket today.  :)

We also picked up fresh green beans to go along with the sweet corn.  We'll be back for some squash and peppers another day.
