No sooner do I change up our website for Autumn when 

here I am, once again decking the halls for Christmas!

Is anyone else wondering just where 2024 went? 

This year has seen our family through many milestones and challenges. We reflect on the many  blessings our

Father in Heaven has bestowed upon us and wonder what He has in store for Athol Orchards in 2025. 

​

Here at the orchard, we've been winter prepping, 

continuing to tuck animals away for the long winter, and at the same time remain puzzled as to when Mother Nature will decide to bless us with some snow! While the wintery white is a mostly beloved occurrence here in North Idaho, there are still those who curse it away, wishing for fair weather and sunshine. And while we certainly won't complain on the days the sun decides to peak out and give us all some much needed Vitamin D and warmth, we also realize that North Idaho needs the snow packs in the mountains to fend off the summer fire season. 

​

While we all hunker down for the long winter ahead, we still have the birth of Christ to celebrate! While we will always put God first in our home, the tradition of Christmas and the giving season still runs deep. From donating to community organizations, shopping for the local Giving Tree ornaments and throwing a little money into the Salvation Army bucket down at the grocery store, we do what we can however small to give back to our community. 

​

If you are in the giving spirit this holiday season and wish to gift your loved ones something completely unique and beautiful, we invite you to shop our online orchard store and select an Orchard Gift Crate or two! We ship nationwide with a very reasonable flat rate for shipping. The orchard crates are hand built and branded right here at the orchard with timber milled on site. For the people who have everything, this is a unique gift they won't see coming and will make them feel completely spoiled with the love, attention and detail added by my family and I. 

​

As another year winds down, we wish to pay a sincere thank you to each and everyone of you who continue to support our orchard based business. The past three years have been significantly difficult for our small business and we are ready for the page to turn on a new and brighter year. 

​

Hold your loved ones dear this season and remember that it is He who gets all the glory. 

​

Merry Christmas

With Love, 

The Conley Family
