Farm History
 |
We purchased the farm in 1974 and have been developing its tree and fruit
capacity ever since. We built our Retail Store in 1986, added in several trees and
started an "Apples by The Honor System" at the end of the driveway in 1995. |

Our Safe Food Pledge:
We are determined to provide good tasting
apples for our customers, using the least toxic and fewest sprays possible. We began
our Orchard after consulting with other orchardists who had worked with Robert Rodale of
"Organic Farming and Gardening". The beneficial insects, birds and amphibians we
see in our Orchard are our best indication that this is working
