Rulfs Orchard is a farm market mecca in the northeast corner of the ADK in Peru, NY. Visitors can find various farm-fresh products at any time of the year -- apples, cider, doughnuts, jellies and jams, honey made from ADK bees, maple syrup products hand-crafted chocolates.
Come springtime, Rulfs opens their greenhouses. Choose from a wide variety of plants, veggies, and flowers to fill your garden.
If growing your own is not your bag, stop back anytime from June through October and partake of the bounty of Rulfs farm.
We're talking in-season:

Rulfs features an on-site bakery and cafe serving sweet and savory breakfast treats, bakery items, soups and sandwiches. They also hand-pack their homemade ice cream from May to November.
