I have been wowed by the sundae & flavor specials that Bishop's Orchards has been posting about for…read morethe last few months, but I live about 50 minutes away. Finally, I just had to taste one of their July specials, their own blueberry pie à la mode. You had the choice of blueberry or vanilla ice cream, and I needed blueberry. It had whipped cream and blueberry compote on top also. I enjoyed every bit. It was incredible. The large wedge of their own blueberry pie was excellent. I loved the flaky crust and there was a lot more blueberry filling than a lot of other pies. I had also been eyeing another flavor on their board, and what I ate was so good that I went back up to the window for a kid size cup cold brew pb chip. The cold brew flavor was strong but balanced, and it's rare that so many flavors work together in ice cream without one getting lost. I was really impressed this was one of those rare cases where everything shined and wowed, and it really was as good a flavor as I wanted it to be. I did not go inside the farm market. I just ordered at their ice cream window and ate at one of the outdoor tables. There were several of them, as well as a few benches, and it was a nice environment. The girl at the window was super friendly and helpful too. I loved my first experience. I can't wait to go, and actually hope to for another of this month's specials! Highly recommend a visit.

Rude, expensive poison…read more So much pesticide on items like peach and blueberry! Local doesn't mean better. People have a false idea that local means old fashioned or organic. No, In fact I'd say it's worse, as I wonder if anyone is actually keeping an eye on these people as to the pesticide levels. They are terribly rude and overpriced on top of it! If you read the dirty dozen and the clean 15 it gives you recommendations for which items you should buy all means get organic all the time and which items you don't have to worry about. Peaches and blueberries with their thin skin are things that one should get organic. Support organic growers.

We found our tree and enjoyed celebrating our first Christmas in our new home. :)

This is a business that I am proud to support and promote.

This weekend they had a plant & veggie sale, and we definitely loaded up on plants, veggies and a raspberry bush for our garden! Very affordable, and we love supporting our local farms.

We were greeted by very nice locals and a woman who either owns or works at the farm. It had a cozy Christmas charm and she gave us a few samples of their local fruit wine. I have never had wine besides wine made from grapes. I was very pleasantly surprised with the apple, peach, and blueberry fruit wines!! They were soooo good that we bought 4 bottles home. In the back of the shop is a Christmas tree farm. The men in the tree farm were very nice and offered me my own saw to cut down the tree of my liking. I was flabbergasted because I'm from NYC...saws are definitely not within arms reach at any tree farm...or anywhere...unless you're at Home Depot or something. I was very happy with my visit here and the merchandise we bought.
