Sweet Apple Cider – freshly-pressed right on the farm with our apples. Our cider is ultra-violet treated so it maintains the safety criteria of pasteurized cider. It is not heated so the fresh apple flavor is maintained as well.
Jams are produced here on the farm with our own peaches, berries, and cider, We also carry Netties Kettle Corn, “Betty’s Bee Farm” Honey, Chepachet Farms maple syrup, Rheds Hot sauce, Backyard Food Company, Side Hill Farms pumpkin butter and Other Specialty Products in our Market.
We are now again growing Sweet Corn!! All of our corn is a very delicious variety of white corn similar to "silver queen."
please note that the RI Department of hHealth at one time allowed us to make our own Apple cider doughnuts, and now have changed their rules to prevent us from making our own.
We continue to work with them to find a resolution to this situation. In the meantime, we are working on a different type of baked good that they will allow us to produce with our own fruit.

We participate in a variety of farmers’ markets throughout RI almost year-round! You can find us at the Aquidneck Growers’ Market on Wednesdays in Newport, Saturdays at Casey Farm in Saunderstown, RI, starting in July. By mid-late August, we can be found at all of the markets listed below.

Saturdays in Winter
Once November rolls around, our fruit, cider, and applesauce can be found at the following winter farmers’ markets on Saturdays.
We continue to make our sweet apple cider through the winter. It is a wonderful flavorful addition to pulled pork, beef stew (or just with a little Captain Morgan on a cold winter night!)
