Welcome to TROO Life Farm

In our work we will learn and teach the ways of nature

Nestled in the heart of the Driftless Region, Turkey Ridge Organic Orchard spans 97.2 scenic acres of rolling hills, rich soils, and pure dedication to organic farming.

Since its founding in 1988, TROO has stood as a steadfast advocate for sustainable agriculture, rooted in the belief that nature knows best.
The orchard features 13 unique apple varieties developed at Georgia State University for their natural resistance to apple scab, allowing us to grow healthier fruit without the use of synthetic sprays. Every apple grown here is a reflection of our commitment to organic principles, nurtured with care for the land, the trees, and future generations.

With deep respect for ecological balance, TROO produces flavorful, nutrient-rich apples that speak to the power of patience, purity, and purpose.
