Bitter Sweet Blessings Farm

About Our Orchard

Bittersweet Blessings Farm is home to an heirloom apple orchard. Established nearly 90 years ago, the fruits from these trees are firmer, juicier, and tastier than those in most grocery stores. 

 

Still talked about as a local fall destination when the apples, pears, and cherries ripen, the farm has a long history of providing fresh fruit to shoppers in southern WI.

Apples and Gourmet Food for Sale

From crafters to farmers, we have over 200 different vendors selling their products, each one different from the next. Our flea market and farmer's market offer spaces both inside and outside for vendors to set up. 


Taking advantage of all that Wisconsin falls have to offer, we'll be offering fresh apple products right from our orchard on the farm including apple cider, apple cider donuts, apple butter, and hard apple cider. Stop out to pick some of these goodies up, you won't want to miss them! 

Unique Farm Experiences

At the Apple Fest, the majority of activities of the day will be centered around the apple. Some things include:

  • Tasting and sale of fresh-pressed apple cider made on site 
  • Experience fresh apple butter being cooked on an open fire 
  • Enjoy fresh apple pie, apple cider doughnuts, jams, jellies, etc 
  • Live entertainment shows

You can also take advantage of photo opportunities amongst the numerous fall/harvest decorations throughout the farm. Maybe even grab some $3 pumpkins for your fall décor.
