About Us
Opened in 1904, Blue Hill Orchard covers just over 300 acres – 250 acres are in apple production while another 30 are in peaches, plums and nectarines. Today the whole family pitches in on this fifth generation orchard which has grown, improved and modernized over five generations. Eric Henry, owner and great-great-grandson of William Henry, manages the orchard and packing facilities. His mother, Rita, does the bookkeeping and wife, Rebecca, runs a small retail facility on the farm. Just like his father and grandfather taught him how to work the land, Eric Henry is continuing this tradition with his own children.
