We met Paulo and Solomon who work at the farm. They actually have another far not too far from the Leona Valley farm that is much larger. They have cattle and chickens roaming around the barn.
The inside of the barn is filled with all sorts of apples and stove which keeps people warm.
You will get to try a variety of different apples while you are there.

The peaches are the “last chance” variety and they are so good, very sweet and juicy. Not to be missed.
