Victoria Addison is reporting in the Register-Star Love Apple Farm will open its new 9,000-square-foot facility to the public on Fri., Aug. 26. The roadside establishment features a market, cafe and bakery. Love Apple Farm is an 80-acre orchard located on Route 9H in Ghent, and was established by the Loken family more than 40 years ago. The original farm stand building was destroyed by fire in 2013. One half of the new facility houses the market and cafe; the other half will be used for storage and refrigeration. A variety of items will be available at the market, including produce, meats, dairy items and more. All foods offered at the market will be locally and regionally sourced. The farm will be open through the holidays. Love Apple will hold its grand opening later this year. The farm’s 12 varieties of apples will be available for picking beginning Friday.
