2008 Season

Spring came late to Northern Utah and apple development is running about 2 weeks later than in years past. Our retail store will open for the season on Saturday September 13th instead of our traditional Labor Day opening.

Proposed retail store hours will be:

Sunday 10am – Sunset
Monday – Friday 1pm – Sunset
Saturday 8am – Sunset

Any other time, outside of those set hours, by appointment.

Products sold in our store are all grown on our farm and made by us (with the exception of honey which is provided by our neighbor). We will have many varieties of apples (PYO and picked, look for further postings for specific varieties and harvest times), un-pasteurized apple cider, free range eggs, rhubarb sauce, maple apple sauce, winter squash, cider mulling spices, hot mulled cider by the cup (Saturdays and Sundays), local honey and possibly choke cherry syrup.

The pumpkin patch is growing well. Pick your own pumpkins will be $2 for any pumpkin, any size. We will also have pre-picked pumpkins.

A note about credit card sales. We looked into accepting credit/debit cards and in an effort to keep our prices as reasonable as possible have decided NOT to accept them. Because we are a seasonal business the setup, transaction and percentage fees could add as much as 10% to the price. We gladly accept cash or checks.

We look forward to seeing you this fall and look here for future postings, updates, pricing

Summer of 2007 is coming to an end

Paradise Valley Orchard















We are starting to take appointments for custom apple pressing. The press will typically be running on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. As always there is a ten bushel minimum; that will yield about 30-40 gallons of cider, depending on how juicy your apples are.

We have also starting taking pre-orders for our specialty cider blends:
Thanksgiving Blend – available the Monday before Thanksgiving
Christmas Blend – available the Monday before Christmas
Hard Cider Blend – available mid October




The pumpkin patch has really taken off. Come pick your own pumpkin before Halloween.
