Today I stopped by Terhune Orchards - Princeton, NJ in Lawrenceville, NJ. There is so much I could say about this incredible family and farm!
When my family first moved to Lawrence Township from North Jersey, I quickly learned we had amazing local agriculture right in our backyard. Some of my earliest memories here involve their famous apple c***r slush—a tradition I still keep alive with my own son today. 🍎
My connection to the Mount family goes back years:
• Pam, through local civic work when she served as Mayor
• Tannwen & Reuwai, who are my age and became friends
• Gary, through our work together with the Mercer County Board of Agriculture
Over the years, my business, Zone 7 has been proud to source from Terhune, as well as help supply them with items they don’t grow themselves.
Today, Tannwen gave me a tour around the farm, and it’s incredible to see their diversity—including 6 high tunnels and 2 greenhouses where they grow their own greens year-round! From tree fruit (apples, peaches, pears, cherries) to countless vegetables, family activities, and educational programs, they do it all.
It’s been a challenging weather year for local farms, especially tree fruit growers. But as Tannwen reminded me today quoting Gary, “We don’t do doom and gloom.”
I couldn’t agree more.
Make sure to visit and support Terhune Orchards this season and for years to come! 🚜🌾
