**Helene's Family Update**

The Pagora family gives our thanks to our employees, volunteers, and our customers who gave their all to make our 2016 season a success.

Our awesome and loving God continues to be with us through the changes we are experiencing.

Helene is joining Dave in retirement. We will continue to live on the farm and you should see us less tired and having happier faces when you visit.

We are leaving you in great hands with our daughter Olivia, her husband Mark, and their three kids. Join us September 16th when we open for a wonderful experience here at the orchard.

At Helene's Hilltop Orchard, we have fresh, homegrown apples, pumpkins, and baked goods waiting for you to take home and enjoy. You can pick your own apples, find the perfect pumpkin in our pumpkin patch, or shop in our bakery and sales barn.

Helene's Family established themselves as a dairy farm in 1919, but grew BIG pumpkins even then. Dave and Helene Pagoria made the transition into an orchard in 1979, and a commercial bakery was added in 1992. As the apples grew, so did our business.

Today, we manage around 20 acres of apples, 10 acres of pumpkins, a corn maze, a barnyard play area, and a delicious bakery, which all combine to make Helene's Hilltop Orchard a great destination for family fun and memories.

Stop in and have a fun, relaxing fall day with the family at Helene's Hilltop Orchard.
