Last week, I introduced you to the Pohorly family. They are a third generation farming family from Niagara-on-the-lake and run The Fruit Shack, which has been in operation since 2003. Steve Pohorly and his wife, Breanne work the farm together with his parents, Frank and Susan, to sell fresh, local, quality produce at affordable prices. With a total of 53 acres of land, they grow a variety of crops including; asparagus, raspberries, cherries, peaches, tomatoes, zucchini, nectarines, garlic, plums, sweet potatoes, apples, pumpkins and more.
While their delicious butter tart recipe will remain a family secret, the Pohorly family has kindly shared their apple crisp recipe below. For more seasonal recipes, store hours and directions, visit thefruitshack.com and follow @TheFruitShack on Twitter.
