What's Ripe:

   As of Jan. 1, 2011    Sceiford Farms is no longer operating together.

    (George) & Sue's farm is now G & S Sceiford Farm honoring George's stewardship of our land with its center of operation at the grey packing house at 611 Dewey Rd.

George's brother is operating his farm from the red barn on Middle Rd.

*****************************************************************

G & S Sceiford Farms is closing for the 2011 season.  The final fall crops of pears, apples & grapes have been harvested. WOW!  What a first year.  George would be proud.

It was so nice to see familiar, friendly faces George and I have seen over the years and am looking forward to a bountiful 2012 year, too.

We'll continue to work after a little break, planning, ordering trees, reading & learning about fruit production to continue to offer quality fruit throughout next year's and future seasons. We've already excavated some old trees across Dewey Rd. and pulled stumps in preparation for next spring's planting.

I'm still on a learning curve but now have a purpose and passion to go on honoring George's legacy as steward of our land.

Thanks for your continuing support.  See you next fruit season.

See you next year!   Sue Sceiford

Grape pies are interesting to make. There are lots of great recipes to make with the late fruits.  I want to try my hand at grape juice this year.  Never took the time before.  It's great with some crackers, cream cheese and fruit chutney or salsa, whatever you have time to cut up and mix..

Here are 2 grape pie recipes I've used.  I add a touch of cinnamon to the grape filling when I make them.  Have fun and tasting!
