Come visit our orchard/farm which has been in our family since England's King George granted the land to our family in 1752.
Yes, it's true, our family has been farming this land for over two centuries. Dickie Brothers Orchard is on Virginia's "Century Farms" list. We grow over 100 acres of apples and have 15 different varieties. We have Loring Peaches in limited quanitities in late July. We also raise beef cattle, have Saddlebred horses, and various colors of Labrador Retrievers running around the orchard.Nestled against the eastern edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the Appalachian Mountains, the cool mountain air gives our apples great color and excellent flavor. The view from our orchard is the envy of almost anywhere in the United States, especially when the fall foliage is in full color and the apples are fresh on the tree.
We will also sell our Dickie Brothers produce at the following farmer's markets during the 2009 season:
