Practices
Having purchased the orchard in 2017 after it had been left to nature for several
years, we have worked with a horticulture educator from the Penn State Extension
center to develop our pruning, fertilizing and spraying plans to get the orchard back
to maximum production as soon as possible without compromising our mission. Our
intent is to serve as an example and resource to the community for organic farming,
partnering with the local educators to allow instructors to use the orchard for hands
on experiential learning within their curriculum.
