Virginia Fruit & Orchard Day Tour (Timberville Area) – Wednesday, July 13th

We have a fantastic day tour of several Mt. Jackson/Timberville area fruit operations scheduled for Wednesday, July 13, 2016.  The tour will include orchards, a retail market, a packing operation, a processing operation, a cidery, a catered lunch, and dinner.  We plan to arrange a coach for participants traveling from the Winchester area.  There will also be other transportation and carpooling options planned as the need dictates.  If you are interested in this day tour, please complete the registration on the attached brochure and send in the registration fee of $35.00/each by July 1, 2016.
