The first Honeycrisp of the season!

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.  You can take a self guided hike through the prairie, take your time to appreciate the fall day by picking apples directly from the trees (when supplies are available) and
 f
inish your day by participating in cider making using an old fashioned cider press.

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

Dear Friends of the Orchard,
We are currently applying for a grant from the MN Dept of Ag to help us start a cider business at the orchard. Part of the grant proposal includes "letters of support."  If you could send us a quick paragraph which we will forward on with our proposal, that would be greatly appreciated. Please include your name and city with your note and send to:  montgomeryorchard@integra.net
Please help us to explain the following:
-What does Montgomery Orchard mean to the community?
-Why do you think an expansion into the cider business would be appropriate?
Thank you so much for your help with this!
We apologize for the short notice but would like you to send us these notes by Sunday, December 30th.

Thank you for your support this year!
We are now closed for the season.
