Spring Mountain Farms in Lehighton is a family-owned and operated livestock farm, produce stand, and pick-your-own orchard.
Spring Mountain Farms raises their own grass-fed beef, pastured pork, and free-range poultry and eggs. They raise their meats the natural way, without antibiotics, steroids, or added hormones.
Spend a day in the orchard, where you can pick your own blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, apples, peaches, pears, currants, kiwi berries, and grapes. It’s a fun (and delicious) destination for the whole family.
Stop by their store to buy meat and eggs year-round. In the summer, they also offer plenty of fresh, local produce.
