Welcome to Park Hill Orchard
Hello friends!
Park Hill Orchard is in the fourth year of a five-year renovation. Visit our Flickr Gallery to see what life is like here on the orchard.
We currently tend about 80 varieties of perennial fruit in the form of strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, persimmons, plums, cherries, pears and apples, with more being ramped up in 2011-12. Join our newsletter to stay updated on our offerings.
If you have a question about something we grow, or would like us to grow something for you, please contact us.
Our staffed farm stand is open from late summer to around Thanksgiving. You can get directions to the orchard. We look forward to your visit!

Be a Local Hero!
It is estimated that the farmer uses about 20% of the energy used to produce the food in a grocery store. The other 80% is burned in the storage, transportation, processing, wastage and packaging by the distribution systems after the food leaves the farm.
Eating our food is not only healthy, it saves massive amounts of energy.
Since food production takes a large amount of the power (and water) consumed in the States annually, eating local food, grown and sold at a local farm, can save more energy than any other action you can take.
