$10.50 for a half bushel in Michigan

Submitted by Twentysixtwo on October 22, 2007 - 17:39.

About 30 minutes outside of Ann Arbor we went to Wasems orchard and paid $10.50 for a half bushel. This was at least 20 lbs of apples (A bushel is either 42 or 48 lbs depending) not including what we tasted along the way.

50 cents a lb isn't free, but it was fun. We scored some Ida Red, Rome, Empire, and Red and Yellow Delicious (Our kids like them but not me)
