Virginia Gold Orchard

“I love supporting small business. I just stopped by for the first time today, Nov 19 2017. They have 3 different types of Asian pears, 3 different types are persimmons, honey, Asian pear jam, and more. It is chestnuts season, and it's the main reason why I stopped by. Their chestnuts are pesticides free!! And I think she mentioned organic, too. I bought 2 bags of chestnuts for $4.99 each, 4 little jars of Asian pear jam for about $6 each, 1 big Asian pear, and 2 little persimmons for $38.98. a lot more than I expected, but once I added everything up, it made more sense. I will definitely stop by next time I drive through. The owner was very friendly.”

“We came by because we love Asian pears, and the farm, the owner, and the fruit far surpassed our expectations. The owner took the time to talk to us at length and let us sample everything. They have two unique varieties of Asian pear developed at the orchard, the best Asian pears I've ever tasted. We bought ten pounds and we're going to have to come back soon. We also bought some of their delicious marmelade and a jar of exceptional honey.”

“We went for the U-pick flower bouquets in mid August and it was such a positive experience. The owners were super friendly and helpful! There was a great selection of flowers, so you could go for a bright, summery look or a darker, autumnal color scheme. Looking forward to coming back and seeing what all they have in store!!”

“Stopped to get asian pears not in season yet. Ended up getting a sangria flight which was awesome. Peach, cranberry/orange, pomegranate and pina colada. A stroll in the garden was so nice after the flight. Just a bit clumsy with the paths wonky but to see the bees working was cool.”

“Amazing local winery! Their sangria was awesome and that’s coming from someone who doesn’t normally like sweet drinks or sangria! You definitely need to try the margarita, peach, and pins colada.”

“See Christina for wine tasting she's the best! Nice assortment of reds and white wines also house made sangria delicious!”

“Wonderful place. Took our parents from Maine. Bought a few items from the store and cut tons of flowers.”

“Bought pears three times this season. First two times the pears were all delicious and in great shape. Third time we were very disappointed. All but 4 out of a full box were brown and mushy on the inside even though they looked fine on the outside. See photos. Emailed owner but have not received a response. Would give the good pears a five but at $36 for a box that we were only able to eat 4 of, have to reduce the rating to a three.”
