About This Farm
Prairie Sky Orchard at Union is closed for the 2026 season, and the number the orchard gives is the one to remember: spring frosts "killed 99% of the blooms".
What You Can Pick
Apples and pears, in a normal year.
Good to Know
Nothing this year. The orchard expects to reopen in 2027. Email sueasarm@yahoo.com.
Pro tip: a ninety-nine per cent bloom loss is not a bad harvest, it is no harvest, and it takes a season to recover from. Treat 2027 as the year to try again, and ring first even then.
