Edwards Apple Orchard, Poplar Grove

Edwards Apple Orchard was amazing! I have heard about this place for a couple of years now and have wanted to go! Finally Saturday my husband and I did it not knowing how big of an operation it really is! I want to start by saying every employee that I had contact with was so very friendly and I appreciate that most of all! Lines were kind of long but the workers kept things moving and even a long line didn't take long to get to your destination. We started in the pumpkin patch and found two small pumpkins that I have in front of my home. Then we went on up to the barn and walked through just to see what all was available. Wow! Quite the compilation of apple butter, maple syrup, bacon jam as well as candies, apples and the amazing apple cider donuts! My husband is more of a frosting fruit filled donut guy but when I gave him one of the warm apple cider donuts he even said this doesn't need frosting or fruit filling! This is amazing! Did not disappoint! We had a barbecue sandwich, apple slices with caramel and cold apple cider to drink. It was so good! Thank you for making quite the family friendly place to go experience the country!

A live band was playing. Amazing ciders and apples. They also distribute some outside market items. A great little playground and maze for the kids. The parking wasn't bad. They had traffic control and assistance. Their market (heck damn near grocery store) is very esthetically pleasing and fun to walk around. The crowd has definitely picked up since Covid regulations have dropped. It's nice to see people out enjoying themselves again.
