What they do
Ya Ya Farm & Orchard is a u-pick apple orchard in [[boulder|Boulder]] County, [[boulder|Colorado]], stewarded by the Goss family on the same 8-acre property since 1896 — 130 years of unbroken continuity. The orchard runs roughly 1,000 fruit trees: apples primarily, with cherry, plum, pear, grapes, blackberries, and raspberries rounding out the rotation. The farm stand sells apples and baked goods, and the season closes with AppleFest. The orchard is not USDA-certified organic; the farm describes its approach as “natural and sustainable.”
Why it’s listed
Two substantive filters. Lineage-authorized: 130 years of single-family stewardship of the same 8 acres on the [[front-range|Front Range]] is a meaningful long-arc commitment — most Colorado orchards from that era were paved over decades ago. Diversified perennial production: an 8-acre operation maintaining 1,000+ trees across seven fruit categories is real polyculture and germplasm preservation, even without organic certification. The combination is enough to clear the bar.
