109 Franklin Street • Hightstown, NJ • 609-443-3777

Terhune Orchards and the Mount family were awarded the first annual Farm-to-School Farmer Recognition Award by the New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture, Doug Fisher, Senator Turner of the New Jersey State Senate and Senator Bateman praised the Mounts. The Farm to School Farmer Recognition Award acknowledges Terhune Orchards’ outstanding contributions to educating children about the importance of farming and the environment, and their educational initiatives for students of all ages and abilities. On school

tours, children can explore the farm, learn how a farm operates, discover gardens, interact with animals, and participate in hands-on activities while learning about crops, pollinators, the importance of water, and the life cycle of insects. The Mounts are well known for the many community activities held at the farm. Since they started farming in 1975, they have hosted thousands of school children on educational farm tours. For the last 13 years, Tannwen Mount has organized Red & Pick programs for preschoolers where the Terhune Orchards staff leads education programs and reads stories related to farm produce and activities, then the children and parents pick the fruit and vegetables. These programs are so successful that they are now held year- round as Read & Explore and Read & Discover programs. Five weeks of Summer Camp on the farm have inspired many young people to cherish the land and become lifelong stewards of the environment. Terhune Orchards is a 200-acre fruit and vegetable farm in Lawrence Township, Mercer County and is open year-round. It has a farm market, winery, bakery, Pick Your Own fruit and vegetables, and Seasonal farm festivals, including the Fall Harvest festival. All Terhune Orchard’s activities are geared toward welcoming families equally, especially children.
