Stony Grove is an apple, blueberry, and lavender farm, nestled in Pleasant Valley just 5 miles west of Smugglers Notch. Dick and Anne, having lived in Essex Vermont since 1990, purchased the "Pratt Farm" (circa 1850), in 2015. Their hard work cultivating hundreds of apple trees and blueberry bushes over the past 7 years has created Stony Grove Apple and Blueberry U-Pick. Both Dick and Anne have a love for creativity, entertaining and community. 2019 was the first year of marketable produce and each year the plants are providing more delicious fruit. The farm stand in the barn offers picked berries and apples along with cut flowers, lavender, soaps, eggs, honey, apple cider vinegar, and other delicious treats. Dick and Anne hope people will enjoy their quintessential farmhouse property with its vast mountain views, opportunities for learning and community connection.

We consult a team of experts who have years of experience in growing and maintaining apples and blueberries. We use advanced techniques and technologies to ensure the highest quality produce.
As certified private pesticide applicators, we use an integrated pest management (IPM) approach to prevent pests from reaching economically and aesthetically damaging levels with the least risk to people, property, and the environment. We do this by identifying the pest and understand its biology, monitoring the pest to be managed, considering all available management options, developing a sound pest management program, implementing the IPM program and recording and evaluating results.
