September may mean back to school for many, but at Great Country, it means back to the farm for freshly pressed cider and apple picking.  Challenge the What’s Regenerative Agriculture Corn Maze and learn about how our Deep Roots in the soil can keep our food and environment as healthy as possible.

Celebrate everything apple with apple picking, our award-winning apple cider donuts, and a romp in our 12-acre play area.

On Saturdays & Sundays, we add in live music, marshmallow roasting, pig races & cider pressing demonstrations.  Check out the Zurschmeide Family’s antique 1865 Cider press. Sample freshly pressed cider and see how it used to be produced!
