Montgomery Orchard is a family owned business conveniently located just one hour south of the Twin Cities. You can find us just one mile east of the intersection of Highways 99 and 13 in the Montgomery township.

Our goal is to provide you with an enjoyable outdoor experience. After a relaxing hike through the prairie, you can take your time to appreciate the fall day and pick apples directly from the trees. Finish your day by making your own cider in an old fashioned cider press.

We grow four varieties of plums, two varieties of pears and 10 varieties of apples.

We are proud members of the following organizations:

Minnesota Apple Growers
Minnesota Grown

Apple Blossoms in the spring.
