Adams County is in the heart of Pennsylvania’s Fruit Belt and known nationally for its apples. With more than 20,000 acres of orchards, wineries and many roadside farmers’ markets, the region is rich in taste.
Ten businesses in the Historic Gettysburg area are now working together to bring agriculture to the millions of annual visitors through the Gettysburg Wine & Fruit Trail, a consortium of attractions that feature not only apples, but much of the area’s other fruit, nurseries and wineries.
“More of Gettysburg’s travelers are exploring the agriculture-rich area of Adams County,” said Norris Flowers, President of the Gettysburg Convention & Visitors Bureau. “A trail such as the Gettysburg Wine & Fruit Trail will connect key sites in the county’s fruit belt, giving visitors a wide range of activities on their vacations.”
