Lyman Orchards

Lyman Orchards located in Middlefied, Connecticut is a great way to get out in the fall weather with family and friends. Lyman's consists of several apple, pear and peach orchards spread across the rolling hills of Middlefield. The orchard store called Apple Barrel is located at the bottom entrance from 9am to 6pm daily. It is full of freshly baked pies with orchard fruits, homemade apply cider, gourmet sandwhiches and tons more of unqiue seasonal foods for fall. As you walk into the store, the aroma of freshly baked apple pie is so enticing that you will have to buy yourself one. Take a drive from Apple Barrel up the hills to pick your favorite apples. Applepicking is cheap and delicious. The trees are bursting with freshly ripened fruit in September and October. Lyman Orchards offers a list and seasonal fruit schedule on their website so that you can pick your favorite fruit. Lyman Orchard's even has a corn maze and a sunflower maze to get lost through with some friends.
Opened in 1972, Lyman Orchards had a goal of growing farm-grown native fruit. Their idea grew to be a popular destination in Connecticut for travelers and are now Connecticut's "largest indoor year 'round farm market."
