Plymouth Orchards and Cider Mill has been a family destination for generations – and now it is a certified organic farm! We have worked very hard to transition the farm to a regenerative agricultural production system. This approach to farming rejects conventional pesticides, artificial fertilizers, and aims to regenerate topsoil, increase biodiversity, improve the surrounding water systems, enhance the local ecosystem, increase resistance to climate fluctuations and strengthen the health and viability of farming. Plymouth Orchards currently grows certified organic Apples, Asparagus, Blackberries, Peppers, and Grapes.
Our products are sold exclusively here at our cider mill and our red shed market. Our sister farm, Gateway Farms, is located just across the road and focuses on growing organic vegetables and flowers. Feel free to ask us about our organic crops and plans for the future! Call us for more information! 734-455-2290.
