HISTORY
Thousands walked the grounds of Heller Orchards for the 30th annual Apple Festival held on the orchard’s grounds. Under sunny fall skies, they were treated to all things apple, including handmade goods from 70 vendors and an array of historic and educational attractions.
​
The event started in 1988 as a fundraiser for two area churches, with the Heller family offering the groups to hold the festival on the grounds. Now, the event benefits roughly five area churches as well as several local first responder organizations.
​
Children are able to be a part of history with several hands-on activities and fun games to win prizes.
​
Greg and Andrea Heller decided to keep the historic and educational elements alive. They are appreciative and grateful to everyone who decides to come out every single year.
