Located between Gettysburg and Carlisle in northern Adams County, Three Springs Fruit Farm has been family owned and operated for over 100 years. Operating as a partnership between David and John Wenk, the sixth generation to farm, Three Springs has a wide variety of apples, peaches, cherries, apricots, raspberries, vegetables and blueberries in season for retail and wholesale.
