Z-Orchard

Meet Your Farmers
What started as a retirement project for Bill Zager has blossomed into a community education facility that is also a working sugar shack, apiary and orchard. All seasons long there are activities and education at Z-Orchard.
We’re excited to welcome visitors to experience the orchard, learn about honeybees and maple syrup, and see how small farms help keep our local food traditions alive.
