Orchard update:
Many of you are aware that we had a significant weather event on Feb 2/3 and May 17/18th. It was a frost for some and a freeze for others. We were hit with a freeze that destroyed the majority of our tree fruit. We will have some apples to purchase in the store. There will be no Pick Your Own.
We have come up with activities to entertain our customers this fall. Thank you for all your ideas! We have begun the plan but before that happens, we wanted everyone to know what we are up against this year.
The Wellwood Orchards family understands that many people plan their weekends and fall season around a trip to see us so we want you to know in advance that this year things will look different.
Our store will remain open 7 days a week, 9-5. We will still have our famous apple cider donuts and delicious baked goods. Our petting zoo is open during our business hours as well.
We hope you continue to support all the Vermont businesses impacted by the freeze and the recent flooding while we navigate through this year.
well
