The  Barn. Unbelievably preserved 1909 Barn.  With additions it is about 4,000 square feet.  The barn houses a unique gift shop, two walk-in coolers, a prep area, cider room, two public bathrooms and a great old fashioned hay mow waiting for its next assignment..  The Hay mow is in great shape and rarely used.  There are a lot of adjoining decks; some of which are covered.  On the weekends this family apple business includes entertainment on the covered deck and outside campfires. There are hay rides for the kids and adults, a cook shack, shopping and family fun.  For more information, contact Charlie Ossell at 612-202-8677.
