    A visitor writes on September 21, 2013: "Visited today, 9/21/13: We have visited this farm for many years & it has become a family tradition. The apple fritters & cider are very good. There are some animals for the kids to interact with. In October, there is a little tractor-train for younger kids & corn maize. It is a simple farm & not over-rated commercialization with bounce-houses, etc. They have a hayride to take you to the apple picking & pumpkin patch (in October). I would agree with the earlier September poster that the orchards are very poor. It is a shame that they have let the trees/area get so bad. There are vines all over the trees & poison ivy in a 3' radius around the trees making it hard for the kids to pick the lower apples. If you know what poison ivy looks like then it's easy to avoid. The apple trees closer to the drop off location had the least favorable apples-- they were more green than red & had Sooty Blotch on them. This is the "black moldy stuff" the previous poster described. This is harmless & does not affect the taste of the fruit or affect how you prepare the apples (sauces/pies) or will it make you sick. You just have to scrub it off before eating. It is more of a testimony to the fact that the farm doesn't properly care for the orchards (pruning or a little easy pesticide) and also the spring/summer we've had in Southeast Ohio. The apples away from the farm, more toward the road, had really nice red apples & good size. There were plenty to pick. I think we paid $13 for 1/2 a bushel. The price for a fritter was about $2.25-- we didn't think that was too bad of a price as they are huge (size of 2 krispy kreme donughts). There are no public bathrooms, just port-a-potties & no running water/sinks for customers, but I think this is pretty typical for a small family farm. None of the strawberry farms or other orchards we've visited had a 'public restroom'. The place would be great if they just put some TLC into their orchards... pretty sad, but it's not a total waste of a trip. The staff is also friendly."
