Champlain Orchards is a beautiful, family-owned and ecologically managed orchard overlooking Lake Champlain in Shoreham, Vermont. It is one of the oldest continuously operating orchards in the state, offering a wonderful and impressive variety of over 100 types of apples, as well as peaches, pears, plums, cherries, nectarines, and berries. The pick-your-own experience is a memorable and incredible part of a Vermont trip, with delicious, lovely, and well-kept fruit. Visitors find it a genuine place with good people, not a tourist trap. The orchard is a beautiful gem, with amazing views. Alongside the fantastic fruit, they offer the best apple cider, excellent apple butter, refreshing apple wine ciders, delicious donuts, and excellent ice cream. Many wish to try their pies. As careful stewards of the land following strict Eco-Apple requirements, they strive to minimize their carbon footprint and sustainably contribute to the community. It is a place that cannot be recommended enough and should not be missed.
Apple picking experience. I went during the summer and plan on going back hopefully in the fall. They have cider, that's 10-11% alcohol.. creeps on you, yet so delicious

Loved picking apples I can't find in stores. They have many varieties!! Visited 1st week of Oct and there was plenty to pick. Best apple Cider I have ever had!!! Wish we could have gotten one of their pies to try. Also if I wasn't pregnant I would have sampled their wide variety of hard ciders.
