About Lyman Orchards Farm Store at the Apple Barrel
Lyman Orchards Farm Store at the Apple Barrel is a year-round destination offering a farm market, deli, and bakery. It is a place with a great harvest feel that is homey and nostalgic. The store provides anything to take home, including meals, deli sandwiches, jellies, applesauce, dressings, bakery items, candy, and ice cream. Popular items are the apple fritters, award-winning Hi-Top Apple Pies, and other bakery goods, all made with delicious apples. The deli serves very big sandwiches and really good burgers. Visitors note the staff can be amazing and friendly. The business is much more than just a store. It is a huge place with so much to do, such as picking fresh fruits in season, picking pumpkins outside by the store, and visiting for seasonal activities like the strawberry festival or the corn maze. The corn maze offers a fun adventure with a themed experience. However, it can be very busy, with enormous crowds on nice weekends. Patience may be required, as getting food can take time during peak periods. Overall, it is well worthwhile visiting for fresh and delicious products and family fun.
Love their pies! I prefer to buy them frozen and bake them as needed. Either way they're always a hit with the family. Bumbleberry is the fam fav. But all the pies are great; flaky crusts and stuffed with fruit.

I drink the cider every day in the fall months. It is simply amazing. Pure apple flavor, and you can feel the difference. If Lyman Orchard cider isn't in my fridge, it feels like something is missing.

Well worthwhile visiting. But beware weekends with good weather (crowds are enormous), the sandwiches are too big (enough for two) and it takes 45 minutes on the weekend to get your food. Unless you have two hours to kill, don't try the corn maze. The "train" is not worth it.
