Enjoy HARVEST-TIME 2024!

This Fall, come up Poverty Lane to pick, taste apples and cider, wander, relax in our orchards! At the farm-stand, find more and more ready-picked apple varieties, mums, pumpkins, gourds, jams, jellies, honey, maple candy, maple syrup... so many local Fall treats! Taste rare apples, fabulous sweet cider, and/or our dry Farnum Hill "hard" ciders.

Kids can run far and wide, because we have miles of tall fence around the whole place. On fair weekends, take the world’s slowest ride through the orchards, on a trailer behind a farm tractor. Explore our walking trails.(Dogs on leashes are welcome, with the usual rule about cleaning up after them.)

Harvest-time offers something different every few days… different apple varieties ripen, wildflowers bloom, colors change, funguses pop up in the woods — so much to appreciate and enjoy...

For info on specific apple varieties, please call the Fruit Phone -- (603)448-1511-- to find out exactly how your favorites varieties are coming along! We can’t possibly give quick info on this website or by email. So call!

Early on, we start with snappy Macs & Cortlands, then Macouns. In the stand we'll have pre-picked Ginger Gold and Paula Red to buy. Our stunningly good sweet cider starts by mid-September. Fabulous, rare heirloom varieties also start after mid-September. By late September/early October our “Apple Zoo,”(the old trial orchard) should open … again, CALL 603-448-1511 for the latest info. It’s fun up here, come explore!

Updates & Events

On Farnum Hill, we use the word “cider” to mean an alcoholic beverage fermented from particular apples, just as “wine” is fermented from particular grapes.

From dairy-land to orchard-land..

We are a mom and pop orchard and cidery owned and operated by Louisa Spencer and Stephen Wood. We have been growing apples since 1965.
