About the orchard

Firstgeneration,organicallyraised crops.

A family effort. We obtained the land in 2023, worked hard on restoring the depleted soil, and planted our first elderberry and apples in 2025. Follow us on social media to see the whole journey in detail!

What we grow

Apples,
elderberries,
Pawpaw nothing else.

Five apple varieties thus far, all organically grown. All of our apple varieties are for fresh eating. Each apple is crisp and full of flavor.

Wild European elderberry is along the natural drainage area in between our apple rows. We have a few variety of Pawpaw trees growing as a trial.

Certified organic

No synthetic sprays.
No spreadsheets.

We organically grow our produce. That means no synthetic sprays, no fungicides, no glyphosate at the fence line. We hand-thin the bloom in May. We mow under the trees instead of spraying.

Some years we lose a third of the crop to a late frost or scab. We don't make that up by spraying our way out of it. We just send a smaller crate.

“A spray is a shortcut.
The orchard never forgets.”
