The trees were loaded with blueberries. Although my pictures don't do justice, they were full. It was easy to pick a full pint or quart just standing in one spot. After we picked our container full, which they supply the containers. We headed back to the store so we could make our purchases. They do have a lot of wonderful foods inside as well, some candies, and drinks, full homemade pies and maple syrup and so on. Something for everyone. Cashier was very nice. And helpful. It was laid back on a Sunday afternoon. Not a lot of people around. And we actually were the only ones in a whole section. The also do apple picking in the fall. And I bet that's super fun with hay rides and mazes and everything made of apples.

The highlight of our Bethel day is scooting down a windy back road to this remote orchard to pick to our hearts content. The landscape of mountains in the distant is spectacular as you pick from the rows of trees with several variety of apples. The remoteness lets you get sucked into the quiet with only the whisper of the wind through the field and tree branches. A must do when exploring the beauty of a Bethel fall day.

Such a fun place! We came to pick apples with our kids (age 2 and 3 1/2). We had a great time. Lots…read moreof different varieties to pick. The trees have been trimmed to not get too large, which made it easier to reach apples, especially for our kids. You pick your bag and pay by the size. We also bought some apple cider. Yummy!

The family is so friendly and welcoming, they went out of their way to tell us about the apples available and invited us to check out their barn and guest house, which are available to rent for functions. Gala, my personal favorite, were plentiful and so tasty. Also visited the cows. And tasted the farm's delicious apple wine and red grape wine- they were all wonderful! The sharp cheddar was delicious alongside. We all had a great time and definitely recommend it as a lovely place to go with family or friends. I was really happy to support this innovative family in their endeavors!

They always have green beans and greens. In season they have blueberries, pumpkins, strawberries, melon, and more great produce. I love the cukes. Potatoes are always good too, Maine potatoes. He supplies a lot of local produce to the local Hannaford supermarkets and local restaurants. Eric is so nice and helpful and he works so hard. The best farm store around.

Then you drive up to the u-pick apple picking with lots of different apple choices. The views are also amazing, and you can get pumpkins and other fall things. They have a kid zone with a corn maze and fun activities. They even have live music sometimes. Then they have a store front with pies, canned goods, more apples, maple goodies and the best donuts ever! My favorite is the pumpkin donuts! This place is a must in the fall!

We were happy to find some delicata squash, but we should have known that they were way out of season, obviously stored for a long time. Again, dried up and inedible. Very un-Maine like.

Outside, a bounty of attractive locally-grown produce was available for sale in baskets along with plants and garden supplies (a big ol' bunny statue I was quite taken with). While, inside we were delighted to find basically our all-time favorite food groups: wine, beer, artisanal cheeses, crackers, spreads, nuts, olives, and more. If we were living or vacationing in this area, I think we would come here every day for dinner supplies and be very content. As it was, we considered grabbing stuff to simply have an impromptu picnic nearby - which I highly, highly recommend you do! - however, the price points were considerably higher than we were expecting. So be ready for that. Also, we didn't find the staff to be exceptionally nice. Maybe it was an off day. Maybe they were uncomfortable in the heat (I know we were). Maybe they're not used to tattooed, pierced young professionals (who, again, looked like sweaty hot messes). Maybe they had been bombarded by tourists or zombies earlier in the day and were tired fending off the hordes, but we felt pretty unwelcome here. An older women stocking the fruits and veg outside glared at us when we showed up and even followed us inside to watch us (the space is postage stamp sized, so I'm not sure what she thought we were going to do). Anyway, it - along with the price - made us feel like we were better off just heading on our way.
