History:

Brackett Orchards is thought to be the oldest family owned and operated orchard in Maine. The original descendents settled Limington, Maine in 1783, and as soon as the land was cleared, apple trees were planted on a few acres. Manley Brackett is the eighth generation of Bracketts who still farm the land growing apples and many varieties of pumpkins and squash. On 75 acres of farmland, nine varieties of apples are grown, including the new and great tasting honeycrisp.
