Russell Orchards, Ipswich

One of the best places to have cider donuts in Massachusetts. The farm store sells lots of other stuff too. From fresh produce to wine. And pick your own seasonal fruits too. The blueberries 🫐 may seem tiny. But they are sweet. The apple picking season starts next weekend. And they will have hot cider at that time. There is a wide variety of fruit wine available to purchase.

This is such a great place to bring the family and people visiting from out of town. It is a wonderful New England experience with lots to see for adults and kids. They offer and a well kept, rustic style store with locally made items, products from the farm, soft goods and yummy homemade treats. The Russell Orchards team is friendly and helpful. A culture passed down from family ownership who is very sustainably conscious. They continue to adopt and roll out solar technology and recently added 48 amp, level 2, dual port charging stations to the parking lot for those who would like to top off electric cars. Simply a great place to visit for a lot of reasons.

Fun place to visit for the traditional New England Fall activities. Apple picking, pumpkin buying, cider and wine as well as icecream and apple cider donuts. What's not to love when you put it in a beautiful setting and add in a barnyard of animals? Well worth a trip if you are out that way.

A friend of mine told me that she heard about this place and I had to try it. To me this is one of the best places in Massachusetts to get warm apple cider donuts. You can see them making the donuts. Nice place to bring the family. They have all different kinds of apples. And a huge selection of pumpkins. There is a country store that sells lots of speciality items. Lots of parking. Clean outdoor toilets.

It was a beautiful experience at Russell Orchards. This place is a great family friendly environment. Nice pumpkin patch, pumpkins are priced by weight. The apple picking experience was good. Had a good walking distance to begin the apple picking (wear comfortable shoes and clothing). Wine tasting currently unavailable but they have a good variety of wines that are produced and bottled by this orchard. The staff was informative and pleasant. Try the warm apple crisp with vanilla icecream, it's delicious! 😋
