Beardsley's Cider Mill & Orchard

We are new in town and had our first visit to Beardsley's Cider - We had a blast! (We are accustomed to Virginia orchards so we did not know what to expect) Apple Picking was awesome... variety of tree types, parking is free and gets you right near the orchard... staff are so kind and friendly. Make sure you have cash - apple picking is cash only. The store takes credit cards...and sells pies, jams, sauces, cider, donuts... and was not super crowded like other nearby farms. We came home,made our annual pie with the apples and it was DELICIOUS. We absolutely loved our visit and look forward to making it a part of our family traditions.

Great place to pick apples! 🍎 The apple pies, cider donuts, and freshly made cider are an absolute must! The orchard is family-friendly and perfect for a fun day out — take the whole family!

Wonderful cider donuts and hot and cold apple cider. Wish we had these things back home!

What a wonderful gem right here in Shelton. The pies are absolutely amazing no matter which one we choose, although the apple crumb is my personal favorite. And there is a reason their donuts are called the best in Connecticut, because THEY ARE! The cider is so refreshing! We love to watch them making it right in front of us. The employees are friendly and helpful even when the line gets long. Love our trips to Beardsley's.

Had a wonderful time apple picking with my family! The orchard is beautiful and well-kept, with plenty of trees to choose from. The country store is charming and offers fresh, homemade treats — the apple cinnamon donuts are made right in front of you and are absolutely delicious, as are the pies. They also carry a nice selection of local jarred goods like honey and jams. A perfect fall outing spot — highly recommend!
