About us:

We are fruit and vegetable growers in the town of Pleasant Springs, Dane County. 2008 will be our 31st year of production on our 35 acres. We grow 65 varieties of apples (1700 trees) on 13 acres and vegetables on 15 acres. We are an IPM orchard with minimal use of chemicals and grow most of our vegetables organically. Our goal has always been to produce quality fruit and vegetables with food safety and the environment in mind. We offer U-Pick and pre-picked apples. We offer our products at the orchard, the Dane County Farmers' Market, and the Westside Community Market in Madison. We are located 8 miles from the eastside city limits of Madison. We are 1.5 miles from the interchange of I-90 and Highway N. From I-90, go south on Hwy. N, right turn on Koshkonong Rd., right turn on Williams Drive.
