Breakfast is served in the farmhouse dining room or on the expansive deck overlooking the valley below and welcoming the morning sun. Tables are set with fine bone china, silver, and crisp linen. Guests staying in the Orchard House enjoy breakfast in the privacy and comfort of their own room. Every effort is made to provide a zestful beginning to the day: fresh fruits and juices, our own award winning granola, home-baked breads or pastries, and a daily main course featuring farm-fresh eggs and meats in delightful combinations. A wide assortment of teas and coffees is offered and is available throughout the day.

As the day ends, guests are offered a glass of sherry, a cheery fire, a game of chess, cards, or Scrabble...a chance to step back in time and recapture moments of good fellowship.

We are licensed to provide lunch and dinner and will do so when the Inn is reserved for a private party. We have done receptions, birthday and anniversary dinners, and will be delighted to suggest menus or to recreate a special dinner for a celebration.

"Hi! My husband and I stayed with you probably fifteen years ago and STILL remember your granola. We can't find anything in the stores after all these years that even comes close! Thanks!"

Susan and Bill Fletcher are pleased to announce the availability of the Second Edition of their popular TURTLEBACK FARM INN COOKBOOK. This helpful addition to any kitchen is available @ $16.95 plus $2.00 shipping & handling.

The following recipe is from the new edition of our cookbook.


Turtleback Farm Granola

Turtleback Farm Inn Granola is always available. We serve it everyday along with the fruit and juice. Many types of granola that are mass produced are too full of sugars and tropical oils. That's unfortunate, because it can be a very healthful food if prepared right. The taste of this granola stands alone, but we serve it with raisins and yogurt on the side. This dresses it up as well as adds further nutritional value.

  • 4 cups rolled oats
  • 3 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup white flour (unbleached)
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 cup chopped nuts
  • 1 cup wheat germ
  • ½ cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup oil
  • 1 Tablespoon honey
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 Tablespoon salt (may be omitted)

Mix all ingredients well and spread into two 9 inch X 12 inch pans.

Bake at 300º, stirring often to prevent scorching, approximately 60-90 minutes or until nicely browned.
