Bushels of Health BenefitsNothing says fall like biting into a crisp apple – and the taste

is even sweeter when you’ve picked it yourself. Apples areunique because they’re one of the best sources of pectin, a typeof fiber. Research indicates that pectin limits the amount of

cholesterol the body absorbs and may be animportant link in preventing heart disease.

Dieters often find apples an idealfood, because they’re sweet and

bulky, yet have only 80 caloriesper medium apple. They fillyou up, not out!

Apples come in all shapesof reds, yellows, greens, and

combinations of these, so don’tjust look for red color to tell you

an apple is prime for eating.Check the skin as it should be

smooth and reasonably bruise‐free.Don’t pinch the apple as you may bruise it. Light russet doesn’thurt quality or flavor.

A Peck of Apple Tips• Store small quantities of apples in your refrigerator, in ventedplastic bags in the crisper, between 34 & 40 degrees Fahrenheit.• Don’t allow apples to freeze.• Because apples absorb odors from other foods stored in thesame area, keep apples in plastic bags. The plastic bag also helpsapples retain their own moisture.• Apples ripen 6‐10 times faster at room temperature than whenrefrigerated. One or two days sitting on a counter top and thefresh crunch of your apple is lost forever.• Dipping cut apples in lemon juice helps prevent applediscoloration.• Baked apples in the microwave are quick and easy.• Spread apple slices with peanut butter for an easy children’ssnack; or dip slices in honey and roll in granola.

How much? How many?• One pound of apples consists of 4 small apples or 3 mediumapples or 2 large apples.• Two medium apples are equivalent to one cup of grated apple.• About two pounds of apples make one 9‐inch apple pie.• A peck of apples weighs approximately 10 pounds.• A bushel of apples weighs about 42 pounds and yield 20‐24quarts of applesauce.

How to CHOOSE a Fresh Pumpkin• Choose a pumpkin that you can carry to the wagon or to your carwithout hurting yourself. Lift with your legs, not your back.• Wipe off water and mud. The pumpkin patch can be muddy after arain. Carry rags to wipe any slipperiness off your pumpkins.• Keep one hand under the pumpkin’s bottom. Lift and carry it fromthe bottom, not by the stem.

• Do not roll the pumpkin on the ground. It may have a hard shell,but you don’t want to risk damaging it by grinding dirt or gravel intoits skin.• Check your pumpkin for soft spots that can indicate rot.• Your pumpkin can last all month if you’re careful. Keep it in theshade, and move it to a cool place, like a garage or basement, if itgets very hot outside. Protect it from a hard frost which can damagethe surface and invite rot.

How to Cook a Fresh PumpkinWhy would anyone want to cook with fresh pumpkin when they canbuy canned pumpkin from the store? For the same reason you buyfreshly picked apples, peaches, and berries at an orchard instead ofin the store... Because the taste is worth the extra effort. Here’s howto prepare your pumpkin for use in recipes. Recipes usually call for 2cups of pumpkin.1. Purchase a “pie pumpkin” at your favorite orchard.2. Wash the pumpkin.3. Heat the oven to 350 degrees.4. Split the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds and stringy pulp.5. Place the pumpkin halves, cut side down, on a baking sheet andbake for about one hour or until the pumpkin is very tender whenpierced with a fork.6. Let the cooked pumpkin cool completely.7. Spoon the soft pulp out of the shell.8. If your pumpkin is stringy, use a food processor or blender topuree it.9. Put the pumpkin in a strainer and let it drain. Get as much of thewater out of it as you can.10. Use the pumpkin in your favorite recipe. 11. If you are not ready to use the cooked pumpkin, you can freeze orcan the pumpkin for later use.12. If you are going to freeze the pumpkin, place 2 cups per freezerbag and put it in the freezer.13. If you are going to can the pumpkin, put two cups of pumpkininto a clean pint jar. Cook at ten pounds pressure for 20 minutes. Forquart jars cook at ten pounds pressure for 40 minutes.

SSeptember is a pivotal month in the garden because you are planting,

starting preparations for winter and at the same time setting the stage for

next spring. Mary Saba, Landscape Designer at The Growing Place, points

out, “It’s an excellent time to reflect on the current garden and make plans.

Walk around your yard and gardens making notes. Even better, take

pictures. It’s a great way to plan for this fall’s and next spring’s gardening

activities.”

Fall Gardening Tips Article Source by Becca Massat

The Growing Place

Fall PerennialClean UpIt’s still too early tocompletely cutback healthyperennials. Werecommendwaiting until theleaves have fallenoff the trees to cutmost back. (Moreabout this in the

coming weeks.) With the exception of roses and plants whereseeds, leaves or pods provide winter interest or serve as food forbirds, you can continue deadheading to keep plants tidy. It’ssuggested you cut back to the ground now perennials thattypically exhibit powdery mildew such as tall Phlox, Bee Balmand Peonies (not Tree Peonies). To reduce the spread of thedisease, don’t dispose of infected vegetation in your compostpile.

PruningStop pruning all trees, shrubs, and as previously mentionedroses, until they are fully dormant. Pruning encourages newgrowth and this new growth will not have time to harden offbefore winter. Also avoid pruning spring flowering shrubs likelilacs, forsythia, viburnum and rhododendron. Spring floweringshrubs have already set their buds and pruning will reduce theirspring flower display. Again, the exception to the fall pruning ruleis when it is necessary to remove dead or diseased branches.

WateringDon’t forget to continue watering, particularly newly installedplants, throughout September and October. Regular watering isessential for plants to complete their cycle and enter dormancyin a healthy state.

Dividing and TransplantingSeptember is a good time for planting too. “It’s an ideal time tofill in holes in your landscape,” says Mary. “The time is right forplanting, dividing and transplanting most spring and earlysummer blooming perennials, especially, peonies and daylilies.Don’t transplant any perennials that are still in full flower, unlessyou’re willing to cut the flowers off. Keep all transplants wellwatered through the fall.”

What to PlantConsider planting trees and shrubs in your landscape now. Bothcontainer‐grown and balled and burlapped trees and shrubs dowell when planted in September and October. There’s also stilltime to plant many perennials and have them safely establishedbefore winter.

BulbsFlowering bulbs require little work beyond planting now for awonderful spring show. Choose daffodil or hyacinth varieties ifyou are plagued with squirrels, deer or chipmunks.Recommendations vary regarding the ideal time for plantingspring bulbs. Traditionally it’s recommended to wait until later inthe fall when the ground temperature is about 55 degrees F butsome garden experts are now encouraging planting bulbs whenthe soil temperature are still warmer. This year we decided toconduct our own evaluation in the Landscape Tapestry Garden atthe Aurora garden center location. We’ll plant some bulbs in thenext week or two, and another similar sample group later in thefall when the soil has cooled and observe their performance inthe spring. We’ll share our results with you next spring!

With cooler weather on the way there are still plenty of

great gardening days remaining. September is the best

time to reflect on the passing season and build

anticipation for next spring.

College COACHINGVÉÜÇxÜHigh School Seniors: Time to Get Busy!

Senior year of high school is such an incredible time. Iknow things are gearing up with your high schoolclasses, but it’s time to get busy and plan ahead with

college applications.

● Make sure that you have created a list of your top schools inwhich you plan to apply. Don’t forget to include a “reach”school as well as a “safety” school. Most students apply to 8‐10schools. If you have not already done so, try to schedule acampus visit or at least thoroughly check out a school online. ● Make a checklist of schools as well as important information –check application deadlines, admission requirements, essayrequirements, application fees, etc. Complete onlineapplications but don’t submit without a thorough review.Consider printing a hard copy of your application beforesubmitting just so you can check and recheck the information.Print out a copy of your official transcript so that you can self‐report your coursework (most applications will ask for specificsas to your classes so it’s good to have it at your fingertips).● If you have not already done so, contact your advisor,teacher, coach, boss, etc. to get a solid letter ofrecommendation. Before asking them to provide a letter ofrecommendation, make sure you give them a resume ordetailed information of your accomplishments/strengths so it iseasier for them to write. ● Don’t forget to create a new email address with your name init (don’t use a vanity or “cutesy” email address but create aprofessional one) to use for college application materials. Also,make sure to check that email address or have information sentdirectly to your phone. Don’t forget to check your social mediapresence. Google your name – what comes up? Make sure yourTwitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts are all markedprivate. Take any questionable pictures/material off. Don’tcreate a reason for you to be denied admission to a school. ● Finally, take a breath and let things happen as they come.Things happen for a reason. Smile, chin up, and enjoy the ride.Enjoy that whole senior year experience.
