ABOUT | Averill Farm
Averill Farm is a family farm which has been operated continuously by the Averills since it was purchased in 1746 from the holdings of Chief Waramaug. For many years it was a dairy farm. Today, the 250-acre property is primarily a fruit orchard but also produces hay and Christmas trees. Sam Averill, of the ninth generation, runs the farm with his wife, Susan, son Tyson, and several part-time time employees. Our donuts are worth waiting for-better yet, come on a weekday to avoid lines. We're open every day-come visit us soon!
The apples and pears are grown in the 27-acre orchard and are sold both as picked fruit and via a pick-your-own (PYO) operation. 90 some varieties are grown, about 15 of which are available for customers to pick. When the PYO season begins, usually with the Bartlett pear crop around Labor Day, the orchard stand opens, and stays open seven days a week, until Thanksgiving.

HOURS of OPERATION: Our hours are 9:30 to 5:30 every day of the week.
