Enjoy a day full of fall flavor! Join us for a hands-on experience at the farm that celebrates the coming of fall with the season’s most abundant crop: apples!

Part 1: Harvest Experience We’ll begin by picking the ripest and most blushing apple varieties from our fields and discussing the history of apple farming in the Pajaro Valley.

Part 2: Tasting Experience With our harvest, we will use our hand-crank press to enjoy fresh pressed cider. In the kitchen, we’ll also bake cinnamon apple galettes and enjoy them together. Participants will get to take home a galette recipe card and a bag of apples from the farm!

All materials will be provided. Workshop will proceed even in the event of rain.

Please bring a water bottle, good walking shoes, and a snack if desired.

Accessibility: This workshop includes extended periods of walking, bending, and standing. Please inform staff of any necessary accommodations.

Join Education Manager, Kelly, for a workshop celebrating the festive fall season and All Things Pumpkin! We will start from scratch with whole pumpkins and learn how to roast them to create fun dishes from homemade purée.

Kelly will guide you through every step of this made-from-scratch adventure, starting with roasting sugar pie pumpkins, to blending and jarring purée, and finally creating a homemade meal with your purée. This workshop is perfect for anyone who is curious about making dishes starting with nutritious whole pumpkins or making pumpkin purée to freeze and use during the winter holidays.

Please join us after the cooking is done for a family meal where we will sit down and enjoy our culinary efforts together with a wine pairing! You’ll also get to take home a jar of purée and some recipe ideas to continue exploring. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to learn, bake, and enjoy the season’s offerings. This is a perfect event for a date night, fun learning with family and friends, or a treat for yourself!

Please wear closed-toed & close-heeded shoes, tie up long hair, and bring a water bottle & snack! All supplies will be provided.

Accessibility: This workshop includes extended periods of standing. Please inform us of any necessary accommodations.
