OUR FARM
FOUNDED ON OUR FARM
Premier Honeycrisp
Discovered on our farm in the summer of 2015, this early-maturing Honeycrisp variety offers the same crisp texture and delicious, sweet flavor as the classic Honeycrisp everyone knows and loves. Ripening approximately 21 days earlier than traditional Honeycrisp, this variety is ready for harvest in early August, bringing the beloved Honeycrisp experience to the season sooner.
Mt. Ridge Farms
Mt. Ridge Farms Inc. is a family-owned and operated wholesale fruit farm nestled in the rolling hills of Adams County, Pennsylvania. With five generations of farming experience, our roots date back to the early 1900s, when the farm began as a small cattle and crop operation.
Today, Mt. Ridge Farms has grown into one of South Central Pennsylvania’s leading apple growers, cultivating more than 600 acres of apple varieties. While staying true to our family traditions, we continue to invest in innovative growing practices, advanced equipment, high-density plantings, and new apple varieties to help shape the future of the apple industry.
