Located in the Finger Lakes Region of New York State along the rolling hills of Seneca Lake, Red Jacket Orchards has mastered the art of harvesting and pressing premium fruits and juices. Three generations of the Nicholson family have grown apples and summer fruits, including berries, currants, cherries, peaches, plums and the largest apricot orchard on the East Coast. Founded in 1958, what began as a local apple farm has blossomed into a 600-acre family orchard. In addition to producing fresh fare, we offer a range of cold-pressed, all natural juices and pantry items. Red Jacket Orchards, Inc. was founded in 1972. The company's line of business includes the wholesale distribution of fresh fruits and vegetables. Red Jacket Orchards is a leading apple and fruit grower with more than 600 acres of orchards in Upstate New York. The company produces more than 20 different varieties of apples, including Empire, McIntosh, and Red Delicious. Red Jacket also grows apricots, raspberries, and strawberries, along with peaches and plums. The company also produces cider and fruit juices. Red Jacket sells its produce direct to consumers through farmers markets and its own orchard store, as well as through supermarkets and grocery retailers. The company's orchards were originally planted in 1917 and have been operated by the Nicholson family since 1958.
