We planted our orchard in the Spring of 2016! We’ve started with over 400 cider apple trees and a mix of nineteen varieties. We will continue to grow our orchard grafting the varieties most tolerant to our climate.

Many of our trees are on semi-standard rootstocks, meaning that they will grow to be big, beautiful trees that are reminiscent of past orchards. These rootstocks also ensure that our trees are hardy enough to withstand cold Montana winters. But, because our trees are larger, they won’t start producing apples for several years. So we've also planted apples trees on dwarfing rootstocks. This will allow us to have production much sooner. Until the orchard is in full production, we are crafting our ciders with fruit from other Montana and Washington Orchards.
