About the farm
- Since 2013
Thousand Acre Farms began in 2013 with owner Mike Hynson. Its orchard consists of dwarf trees, with fruit that is easily reached from the ground for picking. The property combines an apple orchard, waterfront barn, and flower fields, making it suitable for farm visits and photography.
