Broad Valley Orchard is a 3 acre farm located in Wenksville, Pennsylvania, about
15 north of Gettysburg. It is in the heart of the fruit growing region of Adams
County. On this land, plus 1 acre rented from the neighbor, Thom and Judy Marti
grow chemical-free fruit and vegetables. All of the produce is grown on 1.25 of
the 4 acres. They purchased the land in 1983 with the intention of building it
into a small family farm business.
The Broad Valley Orchard CSA has been
in operation for 8 years. In that time we’ve been able to supply our customers
with fresh fruit and vegetables through drought and deluge.
At Broad
Valley Orchard, we have over 125 fruit trees, over 1200 feet of various berries,
½ acre or so of vegetable gardens, and cold frame greenhouses – we call them
salad houses - for extended season growing. We have doubled our capacity to
supply greens through the late fall and into winter by building our second 17' x
48' salad house. So you’ll be able to get the Summer CSA share from mid-May
through October, and the Winter CSA share from November 1 until the end of
January, weather permitting.
Anyone with questions or interested in visiting
the farm, please call 717-677-4131 to arrange it.
