Grandpa's Choice Hard Cidre Apple Orchard

Grandpa's Favorite Fruit Trees and Products

These are some of the best of the hundreds Grandpa offers!

Grandpa tested hundreds of fruit tree varieties in his lifetime. Some were so bad that Grandma rejected them! If they couldn't pass the "Grandma test", they usually couldn't stay in Grandpa's Orchard™. Grandpa's Choice™ varieties are the "best of the best" and became his and Grandma's all-time favorites. Grandpa's Nature Friendly™ varieties are proven disease resistant varieties that Grandpa selected for his backyard fruit grower friends, who didn't want to spray pesticides and fungicides as much. You may be able to find many of these in containers at your local, independent garden center. If they don't carry Grandpa's Orchard™ Premium Brand Fruit Trees, recommend that they become a licensee. You can also buy all of these, plus many more, online in the regular bareroot fruit tree section of Grandpa's Orchard™.
