milburn orchards

Yes, Milburns makes all sorts of Apple products and grows all of their own fruit. Ylou can come and pick your own or buy it freshly picked..........Apples like you would not believe and many other types of home grown produce. In October of each year there is a great farm maze and it is one of the few places where you can get fresh Dutch Donuts. My favorite is no-sugar added Milburns Apple Butter..........Wonderful.....Only three miles off of I-95....Worth the stop

Last summer, Beardy Fiance and I tried to pick our own fruit. It was a lot of fun (and netted us some really delicious fruit), but it’s definitely a lot less of an appealing option in January drizzle than in August sunshine. So when I was visiting Delaware, I was excited to take a fruit shortcut and just go visit Milburn’s Orchards in Elkton.Most commonly known for their apple cider (non-alcoholic, for my non-American friends), which is absolutely delicious and made fresh for their apples. There’s also quite a bit of local produce – check out these autumn squashes. I like that I’m supporting local farmers and finding some in-season veg which is less common in chain grocery stores.The Baking Beardy About Me Bakingbeardy in other media Disclosure and PR/MediaMy attempt to make, perfect and customise the recipes I love!Milburn’s OrchardsJanuary 22, 2015 · by bakingbeardy · in Out and About with Food · Leave a comment ·EditLast summer, Beardy Fiance and I tried to pick our own fruit.

Now, the UD Creamery didn’t exist when I lived in Delaware, but I love the idea of using milk from UD cows to create fresh, delicious ice cream. I also like that they’re highlighting local businesses, like using apple cider donuts in their ice cream.The fruit here obviously changes with the seasons, but I love the sense of supporting my local farm – especially with these delicious baked goods!

The Orchard stays busy with holiday evens. Selling a lot of apple products the fall through Christmas is active. Look for their events as you travel.

I love when Milburn apples become available. Our family has been through many, many pounds of apples this season. We just eat them and I make apple sauce from their apples. They are always fresh and delicious. Honey Crisp are probably our favorite and next the Zoe. No matter the type of apples you enjoy you can find something delicious at Milburn. I've also purchased other wonderful produce from Milburn. Everyone raves about the apple cider donuts too, yes they are wonderful. I also purchase their onions & peppers sausage and apple cider too. I will be disappointed when they close for the season. The website is helpful to understand what apples are ripe for picking and when.

Great seasonal experience. Love the orchards, love the pumpkins, love the donuts! My son will be 17 on Halloween and he had a great time also. A little pricey, especially the $10 a head admission fee. My favorite part was the baby billy goats. HOW CUTE!

Thanks a bunch for letting us know you enjoyed your visit to Milburns! We sure hope to see you again soon on the farm.

My wife, grandson and I went yesterday and had a good time. The shop is neat, clean and has a lot to offer. The staff is friendly and helpful. The grounds are great to tour with animals and pumpkins all around. It was a nice way to spend the morning. If your over 59 years old you're free. Only 2 bucks for my 11 year old grandson. . Well worth the the drive..

My daughter is almost 3 and every year since she was born, we've taken her to Milburn during the fall with her cousins. For the price, so many activities are included: authentic hayride through the apple orchards, a petting zoo, corn maze, boo barn, picture boards, tons of pumpkins near the pumpkin house, inflatable bounce houses for kids and more! For a cheap additional cost, you can do face painting, pony rides, make your own scarecrow, and apple sling shot games. The kids and us adults look forward to it every year and spend hours here enjoying the activities. Not only are the activities great but all the staff is very friendly and they have the most delicious apple cider donuts! Admission is $10 for kids and adults (kids under 3 are free). I do think the kids should be a bit cheaper than adults though, but that's my only criticism.We also do Pick Your Own blueberries here in the summer and apple picking in September every year. I love that you don't have to pay for the picking activities but just for the weight of your fruit and it's a fun family adventure every time. Hands down this is my favorite place to come in the fall! You won't be disappointed and you can make some great memories here!

This is such a great place to take your children/grandchildren. Milburn makes the BEST apple and cider donuts. No kidding they are to die for. Hayrides, haunted house and more (picking your own apples) all make for a great day out with the family. Don't miss this place in Autumn.

This is a fabulous place. We must go 10-12 times a year! There are things for all ages. The hay ride, corn maze, petting zoo, vendors selling their stuff and most off all the warm apple cider donuts!! My kids have been their for hayride and bonfire birthday parties!! Such a great gem!!

Didn't know till recently this gem was in my own backyard since moving to the area! Great place for a visit (young, old or anywhere in between. Staff was informative, friendly and available for assistance...honey crisp apples outstanding. I will be back!!

A really nice experience, especially for the family who didn't grow up on a farm. Milburn Orchards gives the opportunity for kids and adults to experience the difference between "real" food and what is available in the "stupid markets" . Although produce is expensive - it is really good - so worth it. And a lovely atmosphere for a day trip..pack up the kids and make a day of it -- you will enjoy!

We appreciate that you took the time to write a positive review! Thank you and we sure hope to see you on the farm again soon.

So thankful for the customers who come back year after year! We get to know so many as friends and family. Donuts are made every morning, we hope you stop by soon for a taste! Did you know the donuts freeze amazingly well? They are great to pull out of the freezer and pop in the microwave on a cold winter morning!

Very impressive family owned orchard and produce operation with many canned and preserved specialties. Not to be missed!
