What's Happening Now on the Farm
Peaches are here!
Come to one of our farm markets in Oldwick, Califon or Bridgewater for our fresh picked peaches or come and pick your own at our orchards in Califon. The summer season is coming into full swing with our own fresh plums, nectarines, summer apples, raspberries, corn and many other fresh picked vegetables. At the Oldwick farm market, you can even pick your own fresh flowers or select one of our bouquets.
Come see us at one of the nine area Farmers' Markets we attend weekly. We are in Chatham, Denville, Highland Park, Hoboken, Union, Madison, Newark, New Providence and Somerville. See more specifics on Our Locations tab.
Watch our video on tree planting at the Califon orchards. See us on facebook for more videos and info on what is happening at the farm.
Locally Grown, Farm Fresh
We grow it ourselves. For nearly 300 years, the Melick family has provided our community with delicious, locally grown, farm fresh fruits and vegetables! We also sell plants, shrubs, jams and jellies, baked goods, gifts, and even Christmas trees—all the products that people have come to rely on from the Melick family since about 1725.
We are the largest fruit grower in Central and Northern New Jersey, with over 300 acres of land. We have 100 acres of fruit trees, with over 5,000 peach trees and 10,000 apple trees!
Family Fun
Your family will also enjoy acres of fun at our seasonal locations for such activities as Pick Your Own Peaches, Apples, and Pumpkins. In the fall, we also offer horse drawn wagon rides to the field, School Tours, and much more!
You can buy our fresh fruits and vegetables, flowers, and other items at several locations, including the market in Oldwick, and the Califon market which also offers the opportunity to pick your own fruit in season, and at the Bridgewater Market. We also currently attend farmers' markets in Madison, Hoboken, Highland Park, Newark, New Providence, Chatham Borough, and Edison, bring fresh products closer to your door. See each location for hours & directions.
Finally, you'll also want to visit our Cider Mill location, featuring our 150 year old barn, and 50 acres of orchards. Your family will have a wonderful time picking your own apples, and we 
offer hayrides on most weekends in September and October. We usually press the apples into our delicious, homemade cider on most days during the fall season. Our cider is then treated with ultraviolet light, preserving both freshness and flavor.
Call us the next time you are planning a birthday party, a tour for your group, a reception, or just a gathering of friends. We have many wonderful locations for you to choose from, and we are eager to make your visit most memorable!
