a gourmet's apple paradise - Edit
The shop, open daily and year-round, is a cutesy produce and gourmet store with the welcoming look and feel of a family farm stand. Located on Route 12 but still off the beaten path for nearly everyone and so also for me, I find it worth my special trip just for the plentitude of varieties of their "homegrown" apples sold here late summer through early spring.
Read moreMy all-time favorite is their Macoun apples, but I should not tell you this, else you buy them all ahead of me. While not organically-grown, their Macouns outshine even the ecologically-grown Macouns always sold in-season at Willimantic Food Coop and the organically-grown Macouns sometimes sold in-season at Fiddleheads. They also sell their own apple cider in season, and for those who imbibe their own hard cider sold year-round.
But wait! They grow and sell also berries and peaches, and berries grown elsewhere locally just before or just after theirs are in season. Plus a selection of produce you’d expect to find in supermarkets, just not as many varieties or quantities, but always of high qualities. This place is the hidden gem of Gales Ferry.
Pros: the apples! the apples! the apples!, the berries! the berries! the berries!

Apple Cider Slushies = Perfect Fall Day - Edit
Name something better than apple picking carrying a fresh apple cider Slushie?? I love this orchard. It’s absolutely stunning and fun for all ages. (We went as a group of 24-28’s).
