About Virginia Gold Orchard

Virginia Gold Orchard, founded in 1990 by Paul and Youngsuk Estabrook, embodies their enduring passion for Asian pear cultivation. Today, under the stewardship of a dedicated team of farmers, the orchard thrives with approximately 5,000 Asian pear trees. These trees yield up to 16 distinct varieties each fall, creating a vibrant tapestry of flavors.

However, the orchard’s offerings extend beyond its exceptional pears. Visitors can also indulge in locally cultivated Wild-Flower Honey, hand-pressed Apple Cider Vinegar, and irresistible homemade Asian pear Marmalade. The orchard has recently added a Winery Tasting Room. Guests can relish award-winning wines and handcrafted sangrias, all while basking in the serene farm ambiance and breathtaking views.
