Chazy Orchards Farm Market

Chazy Orchards Farm Market ties its apple season to a longer North Country orchard story, including work done with Dr. R. M. Smock of Cornell University on converting cold storage into a controlled-atmosphere room. At 9486 Route 9 in Chazy, the market centers on a farm stand known for a wide selection of apple varieties and other local goodies. The orchard’s own history reaches back well over two centuries, while some of the trees now on the property date to the 1920s. That combination gives the market a clear focus: apples first, with the farm’s longer agricultural legacy close behind.

Why it matters locally

Chazy Orchards connects this farm market to a distinctly Clinton County apple lineage. The orchard says its history goes back well over two centuries, and it notes that some trees planted in the 1920s are still found in the orchard today. It also places the McIntosh apple in regional context, noting that when it was first grown in Clinton County in the 1800s, it became a major hit in New York City.

That local story is carried through named people and institutions rather than general branding. The orchard traces roots to Jean LaFramboise in what is now Chazy, links the McIntosh line to John McIntosh and Allan, and highlights collaboration with Cornell University through Dr. R. M. Smock. For a visitor, that means the market reflects a working farm with a documented regional apple history, not just a seasonal retail stop.

What you'll find there

Apples shape the experience here, but the market stretches beyond fresh fruit into ready-to-eat treats, gifts, and farm-store extras. The mix reads like an orchard stop with both harvest staples and take-home items tied to the farm’s apple focus.

The market opening is marked on September 16th as a one-time seasonal start.

Chazy Orchards’ strongest thread is apple history made tangible through varieties, old trees, and a setting shaped by the wider landscape. The orchard places itself on the shores of Lake Champlain and in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains, which gives the farm market a specific North Country frame before you even get to the apple bins. From there, the historical cues stack up: the orchard says its history goes back well over two centuries, notes that some trees from the 1920s still remain, and ties the McIntosh apple to Clinton County’s 1800s growing history. Even the retail side stays on that thread, with named varieties including McIntosh, SweeTango™, Honeycrisp, SnapDragon, Cortland, and Gala rather than a generic “apples” label.

Know before you go

No dogs and no restrooms are the two details most likely to change a stop here. The market runs on Saturdays from 9 AM to 4 PM during its fall season, with the seasonal opening noted as September 16th and the season extending into December. The location is 9486 Route 9 in Chazy, which puts the farm market directly at the orchard rather than in a separate town-square setup. Payment methods are clearly presented on-site, which helps if you want a straightforward purchase of apples, cider, baked goods, or gift items. If you are aiming for U-Pick apples, that offering is timing-dependent rather than constant.
