About us

Before 2015...
1981- The first 25 trees were planted in the spring. Continued planting trees so that 2 ½ acres were filled. Apple sales started out of the garage, but then moved to an old grainery. The multipurpose building had a walkin cooler built into the north side and a grader was installed on the south side. Customers enjoyed tasting and choosing their apples in the middle alley complete with a sloping floor.
1999 - Purchased land across the road from original 2 ½ acres. Expanded the orchard to include the new varieties being released by the University of Minnesota.
2007 - New sales area was built on the east side of the road.
2008 - Tried something new. Erected a high tunnel behind the new building.
