 About Harvest 
 
   At Applecart Fruits our harvest season begins near the Fourth of July with succulent cherries.
 
     By late July cherry season is blending into apricot season which can last into August.
 
Around mid August peaches are ripe, as well a few summer apples. 
 
Then by September apples are ripening and in October we are in full apple harvest.
 
 Although the summer  tree fruits are only available during their harvest, the apples can usually last through February.
 
All year long we offer apple chips, while supplies last. 
 
 

About Us 

 

Our farm has been an apple orchard for a very long time. Old timers in the area know part of it as "the old Litten place," but even old timers know our part of  farm history began in 1975. That was when Michael Simon began working the farm on lease. At the time, the orchard grew only Red and Golden Delicious apples, which was standard in the industry. In 1978 Michael purchased the farm and has been the sole farmer ever since.

 

Eventually it became apparent that going organic was the best thing to do, as well as diversifying crops. In the late 90's Michael began growing more varieties of apples and expanding his soft fruit selection.

 

Now that eatting organic, local food is becoming common again, Applecart Fruits hopes to continue the farming tradition in this beautiful part of the state.

 

In the future we hope you will continue to find us growing excellent quality fruit as well as expanding the products we offer. Thank you for taking the time to read our website.
