Attend an Event

Hope Orchards is a great place to gather with friends, family and community. Join us at the numerous events we host throughout the year!

This Year’s EVENTS

Every year we host several events to celebrate the fall harvest. Bring a friend and join us!

Story Slam

2020 DATE TBD

This is our third year of hosting Sweet Tree Arts’ annual Story Slam on the second floor of the barn. This year’s theme is TBD. All proceeds benefit the Sweet Tree Arts scholarship fund.

Cider Pressing

2020 Dates TBD

Cider is pressed when there are enough cider-quality apples to justify the effort! Making cider is an imperfect science, at best. We don’t guarantee when or how often we press, and determine this week by week. When we do press, it takes place on Friday afternoons, and we usually sell out by Sunday morning! An unpasteurized product, Hope Orchards cider is sought after by cider enthusiasts from miles around.

Fall Festival

2020 DATE TBD

What started out as a book signing for a knitting publication in 2006 morphed into an annual fiber arts event, and most recently, we’ve settled into a community gathering comprised of local organizations, crafts people, and music. This year our participants will include TBD.

Variety Weekend

2020 Date TBD

There’s so much to taste and compare when it comes to the variety in apples! This event features our late season apples, which we believe are the sweetest and tastiest of the year, thanks to the drop in temperature and length of the ripening season. Twenty varieties will be displayed and available to sample. Create your own mixed bag of whichever apples suit you most.

Rug Hooking Workshop

2020 Date TBD

Additional Workshop TBD!

community meet ups

Apple season may be over but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy the orchard together! Come again for the various activities we organize throughout the year including cross country skiing, stargazing and warm apple cider by the fire. Stay in touch on Facebook to see what’s coming up!
