Rubinette Produce is teaming up with our very own Farmer Nathan to host an apple tasting event for K-5 on Thursday, October 17th from 830a-1130a. The kiddos will be tasting apples, learning about apples, and voting for their favorites.

Help is appreciated for apple slicing and dispersal, and for assisting the kiddos in the voting process. There are 2 shifts to pick from. We'll need 5 volunteers total for each. Feel free to pick both if your scheduled permits:
