We pick the apples for you! Our orchard layout is not the best for offering pick-your-own, so we handle all the harvesting.
We invite you to our farm during the Farm & Orchard Shoppe hours and events so you can experience the farm and see the orchard. Online ordering is also available if you’re not able to make it during Shoppe hours.

While BrynTeg Farm follows organically-grown methods, we have chosen not to become certified at this time. BT’s vegetables, berries, and herbs are grown free of all synthetic pesticides and synthetic fertilizers.
We practice an integrated pest management (IPM) method in our apple orchard, which means our apple trees are minimally treated with sprays. It also means that we try to spray only when a disease or pest is known and found. Small imperfections on the apples are usual and common. The apple still tastes amazing!

No, as there would be too many temptations (at a produce farm) for even the world’s best trained dog or pet! This is for everyone’s health and food safety.

Our Mission
To produce Pure food: Our farming practices are beneficial to the soil and wildlife on the farm. We use no synthetic, toxic pesticides or conventional, artificial fertilizers (with the exception of our fruit orchard).
To produce Premium food: In order to provide highly nutritional produce, we practice crop diversification, crop nutrition, and pest (weeds, insects, and disease) management processes. Crop diversification assists in pollination and pest management. Crop nutrition requires soil building and composting, and pest management promotes natural supplemental fertilization (because the healthier the plant, the fewer the pests).
To provide a Sustainable farming environment: We seek to practice sustainable agricultural processes—environmentally and socially. Sustainable practices are a way of life; it is not just a program. Environmentally, we need to carefully tend the land and preserve it for the generations that follow. Socially, we desire to encourage the current generation about the nutritional value and economic benefits of fresh food that is grown locally.
