ABOUT US. . .

Shelburne Farm is the oldest Pick Your Own apple orchard in eastern Massachusetts.  During the fall the farm invites the public to enjoy lovely New England fall days while picking peaches, pumpkins, and over twenty varieties of apples. The Apple Shop is stocked full of goodies including fresh picked apples, sweet cider, Vermont and Massachusetts cheeses, jams, jellies, and condiments, frozen apple pie and apple crisp, and many other country items.  Just for kids - the apple shop now has a complete line of farm toys, including miniature tractors.

On weekends and holidays the specialties of the farm include fresh baked apple pie, apple squares, and hot cider doughnuts made right before your eyes.  Come early for our almost famous caramel apples.

Directions: On Route 117 in Stow, follow the yellow signs to Shelburne Farm (Click for more details).
