Where Kent Ridge Orchard is located
Kent Ridge Orchard is tucked into Addison County County, on the outskirts of Cornwall. It's one of a handful of working apple farms in this part of the state that still opens the rows to visitors each fall.
Most guests punch 18 Lemon Fair Rd., Cornwall into their phone and let GPS do the work, the entrance is signed from the road and there's a parking area once you turn in.
Nearby you'll find the kind of scenery Vermont does well in October, farm stands, rural churches, and roads lined with maples turning red. It's a solid half-day out even without leaving Cornwall.

Best Time to Visit

Saturdays fill up fast once the first frost hits. Sunday afternoons and any weekday morning are noticeably calmer if you'd rather not queue at the register.
