I have an offer sort of hard to refuse. I have a friend in New Jersey with an orchard full of apples at a very distressed price - mostly Fuji’s. I have two other possible reasons to go up and visit. If anyone interested let me know very quickly. I will have to figure out what the cost would be but these are not drops and I would only need to partially cover gas to make the trip worthwhile.

I'm in

I'm interested!

I’m interested

I think it sounds fun! How many do we need to make the investment worthwhile?

Looks like 9-10$/ Bushel and about two bushels for a five-gallon batch. You can get apples to eat or make raw cider or hard cider - I will need to know rather quickly # bushels. These are fugis still on the trees at a friends orchard in NJ.
I will be most likely be doing a road trip.

I'm definitely in for 2 bushels. Maybe 4 if there is enough to go around.

At the present time no limit so I will put you down for four

I'd say put me down for two and I'll hope the day works out. Thanks!

Dutch will you be pressing the apples in your cider press? If so I'm in for 2 bushels/5 gallons

I will take two as well. I would be down for helping with the pressing operation if the date works out. I am available most weekends.

I’m in for 2

I'm in for 3 bushels; two for juice to make cider and one to eat. Thanks Dutch!

Shaping for a trip to Four Seasons country (NJ) - now up to thirty five bushels committed and still some slack in the volume available and spade in my enclosed trailer - looks like up to fifty available. Planning on leaving early this Thursday and hopefully back this Sunday. Would probably be grinding and pressing at my house on Sat Oct 28.

Wonderful!! Can't wait!
