About Us:
Charlie’s Applies is a small commercial Organic orchard located in the gently rolling hills of Licking County, Ohio. For 25 years, we have been a pick-your-own orchard with multiple varieties of crisp and tasty disease resistant apples. Zachary and Seth Dobbelaer assumed management over the orchard in 2016. We became certified organic in the autumn of 2017.
Since the beginning of our orchard, we have been committed to producing high quality apples practicing sustainable agriculture. That has meant we use no fungicides, herbicides, or other synthetic chemicals used by conventional growers. We manage the orchard following the practices for USDA organic production. So, you can be assured that the apples and everything made from them are free of chemical fertilizers and synthetic pesticides.
