Market Friday: Rustic Apple Orchard & TONS Of Local Goodies

I had forgotten about these pictures I had taken last autumn when we visited a (semi) local apple orchard and farm center. I was going through my emails and doing some housekeeping to clean out my email and these popped into view in my folder labelled "pictures for steemit posts". It delighted me to recall this afternoon me and Mr Golden D spent together on a beautiful afternoon.

We had been on an afternoon drive just cruising up and down gravel roads about an hour from our homestead and this had once been an apple orchard we both had visited when we were kids. So we pulled in and just strolled through the new farm store they had added over the years.

Not sure what this is actually called but it was on display near the rear entrance to the farm store and cider/apples that were for sale indoors. An apple press perhaps?

They sell so many local products here and I fell in love with this table... it was all about lavender.



A little further north of this apple orchard, the city my parents live in, had been preparing for a "Lavender Festival" and to see all these homemade products thrilled me. I love lavender and the soaps, lotions and candles had me wanting to buy some. But I resisted! Maybe this coming autumn we'll go back and I will purchase some.
