Celebrating over 50 + Years of Growing the Finest Apples for You!
Welcome to Fireside Orchard and Gardens! A favorite MN family-friendly apple orchard about 30 minutes south of the Twin Cities metro area, in Northfield, Minnesota.
We grow 25 favorite Minnesota varieties such as Honeycrisp, SweeTango, Zestar!, Haralson, and Fireside, as well as other popular apples like Cortland, Regent, Keepsake, and McIntosh. We pride ourselves on producing the highest quality, tree ripened fruit to give you the best flavor and eating experience possible. Our cold storage facilities guarantee crispness and freshness. Our apples create lifelong memories!
We have gone to great lengths to make our grounds enjoyable for the entire family. Come stroll through the rose gardens and let your senses be amazed. Enjoy watching the Koi fish and wildlife at the pond. Sit, relax, and watch the sun cross the sky from the gazebo. Or play yard games with the family on the south lawn. There’s plenty to do, and not do here.
Read all about our store, gardens and attractions, or learn about the different varieties we grow and or sell, on our Minnesota Apples page. Check out our Apple News to get current orchard news and see when your favorite apples are available.
You can also find us at the Minneapolis Farmers Market weekends from late-August thru early November where we have apples, cider, pies, crisp, and caramel. Don’t forget to visit us on Facebook for all the latest news, and check back here again soon!
