🚨 SCOOP ALERT 🚨

A bittersweet update from one of Canton’s longtime favorites, Applegate Farm Market. Their building has been sold and their lease will end at the close of this year.

Don’t worry…they will remain open through November 30 (closed Thanksgiving and Black Friday), so there’s still time to grab your favorite pies, cider donuts, and all the goodies we love.

The good news? Applegate Farms has a plan in the works for a new chapter (and yes, their famous apple cider donuts and CSA program will definitely be part of it!).

Stay tuned for what’s next. In the meantime, stop by to show your support and stock up one more time.
