Happy spring everyone! The past few months have been very busy for us. Not only did we prune the entire orchard, but also we recently planted new trees.

We also planted some top rated English cider apples that we will be using to make specialty ciders:
We took a number of pictures while we were pruning and planting. You can see them on our special spring 2008 update page. However, we wanted to share the cutest picture right here. This is Jonas, the newest member of the Maine-ly Apples family. He was born just a few weeks ago, but as you can see, he already has excellent taste in cider.
