About

Early in 1958, John & Sarah Mast hurried to the home of their friends, Harley & Mary Miller, to tell them the small orchard in Nappanee would be coming up for sale.   So excited to see the property, Harley & Mary hopped in John’s buggy and told them “there is no time to waste hitching up my horse---we need to see it now!” Shortly thereafter Harley & Mary would go on to purchase the orchard.  In 1958, Miller’s Orchard was formed.  A modest orchard situated within the city limits of Nappanee, Indiana. 

Over the next six decades, Harley & Mary would go on to perfect their famous homemade Amish Apple Butter™ and fresh pressed unpasteurized cider.  If you knew them, you knew that their orchard was about much more than just the apples. Blanketed in a true servant’s heart, the two of them would go on to love, serve and quietly provide for their community.  

Now three generations later, we hope to carry on the legacy that they created in this community.  While the footprint of the old orchard looks a little different right now, rest assured that we will do our best to bring you the cider, apple butter and beautiful orchard that you remember.
