Tucked in down below Twelve O'Clock Knob in the foothills of Poor Mountain is Jamison's Orchard. It's certainly no secret to anyone on the western side of Roanoke.
Jamison's location on Grandin Road Extension is a very popular spot during summer vegetable season. Their corn, tomatoes, and squash are great additions to any meal. Later in the season they have so many varieties of peaches that I get confused.
They used to make the best fresh apple cider that I've ever had, but some new regulations a few years ago made it too expensive to continue making the cider. However, they now import "Country Acres Apple Cider" from Waynesboro, Pa. It is the best that I have found that isn't fresh made.
We always enjoy dropping by Jamison's. They're hard working people who provide wonderful fruits and vegetables for the valley.
This time of year, you'll find lots of apples and plenty of late summer vegetables.
If you are in the area and have never dropped by, you'll be amazed at how much produce they can cram into their small store. We always find something interesting.
They're open all winter also, and they also carry some of the fine breads and rolls from some of our local bakeries. Their homemade hard candy is great for coughs and makes a perfect stocking stuffer.
My wife is interested in getting some of your Applebutter. Someone gave her a jar and she really liked it. Please give me some information about the pricing and mailing information for at least a 16 oz. jar(s) of this apple butter.
Please drop me an e-mail.

I friend gave us some delicious honey that they picked up at your orchard. They wondered if we were related? Our family is from New Jersey. Is there a way to order honey and other products from you?

Thank you so much for allowing us (PWC) to visit your farm today. Our members talked about the trip for weeks before we came and they were'nt disapointed. Thank you
