Orchard Ridge Farm is owned and operated by two generations of women. We seek to invite the community and traveler’s to enjoy nature year-round by providing an environment that is inclusive and welcoming to all. Guests are welcomed to visit us on the farm by walking our trails, visit our pigs, goats, chickens, and rabbits, shop in our market, grab a coffee, ordering a snack, or just popping by to say hello! We have both indoor and outdoor spaces to sit and socialize or dine. We bake fresh bagels daily as well as feature a full menu of espresso products. Together they all look forward to transforming the 38 acres into an agritourism destination.
