and Gail Sasse bag up farm-grown apples from their newly
refurbished apple washer at Gail's Pumpkin Patch on
Sunday afternoon.
Freshly picked apples are poured onto a belt at the
other end of the machine, they go through a cleaner and
come out on the circular table on the other side. After
sitting a bit they are then bagged or boxed for sale at
the pumpkin patch.
On Sunday the patch enjoyed a large number of visitors
on the first weekend of the season for 2021.
