Dassel Hillside Farm
Dassel Hillside Farm in Dassel, Minnesota, is a family-run orchard where apples steal the show and honey sits alongside the seasonal picks. Think honey crisp dreams tucked among seasonal treats, with a small-batch local honey that tastes like late summer. The farm leans into what locals love: apples in every shade, plus strawberries in season, pumpkins and gourds in fall, and a few extra goodies to take home. The honey is local and produced right here, a small-batch sweet that pairs perfectly with a basket of apples. If you’re shopping, head to the farm stand in Dassel and pay with cash or local checks, since debit cards aren’t accepted. It’s a well-run family business that invites you to linger, sample, and chat with the folks who live for fresh-picked fruit and honest honey. A real Dassel staple you’ll remember after September.
