Nebraska City, Neb. (Aug. 19, 2008) – Summer’s harvest of fruit and vegetables are ripe, ready for you to pick and just a short drive away at Arbor Day Farm and Kimmel Orchard & Vineyard.

The pick-your-own season has begun at Arbor Day Farm and Kimmel Orchard. During August, peaches and table grapes are available at Kimmel Orchard, while tomatoes and other garden vegetables are ready to be picked for those who want farm fresh produce at Arbor Day Farm.
