Barton Orchards was founded as a wholesale apple farm in the late seventies by Bruce and Rose Barton. Its first couple of years of operations and sales came from the Apple Core farm stand. By the early nineties, Barton Orchards opened to the public and became one of the first pick-your-own apple orchards in the Tri-State area.

Barton Orchards has a great calendar of events for family fun each year starting in June with events scheduled right through November. One of those events is the popular Car Show and Touch-a-Truck event which celebrates 10 years this year. The 10th Annual Car Show & Touch-a-Truck event was scheduled for this Sunday, July 27th, but due to rain in the forecast it has been moved to a new date.
