Can someone remind me when the orchard has it's apples ready?  I know the when the apples (especially the Champagnes) are ready they go fast and our family has missed this two years in a row so I'm trying to plan ahead this year.  Is it late Aug or late Sept?  
thanks in advance

Is there another Apple farm, petting zoo, type place around to take the kids?  We just moved here and this was one of our favorite fall activities.  I would love to find something, as it is probably about apple pickin time!

The Co-op is actually doing a trip to one tommorrow.  If you are interested in joining the co-op you might want to check with Audra at 797-8989 or Julie at ahomeschoolcoop@yahoo.com for the details.

If you are not interested in the co-op, I can post the details after the trip or you can check at http://abqhomeschool.com/tourlist.html for the lists of feildtrip locations for homeschoolers.  I believe there are some listed there.

Hope this helps.

Jess, we don't have quite that fast a turnaround time on getting prospective members to events, what with having to coordinate with the event organizers, so your suggestion probably wouldn't work out, but it's a nice thought. We also generally steer prospective members to a park day, since fieldtrips tend not to be as good a time for socializing.

The Hays Honey and Apple Farm offers tours, and I believe details can be found at the link Jess gave above.

I thought about that after I posted, but was away from my computer.  That would make things difficult, people joining feildtrips at the last moment.  Thanks Elizabeth for clarifying that.  I will keep that in mind before posting in the future.  I am bad about opening my mouth before thinking things out.

Thanks for offering, you guys are so helpful!  I wouldn't have been able to make it today anyway... but I appreciate the information and I need to go ahead and get signed up so we don't miss out on some of these fun events.  

Thanks Again,

I look forward to meeting you at an upcoming event.  It seems there is always something going on with the co-op.
