Russell Orchard in the Summertime

Posted on by Pat D

It has come to my attention that not everyone knows about Russell Orchard on Argilla Road in Ipswich! While it’s especially delightful to visit in the fall, it’s also a wonderful place to stop in the summer months. There are baked goods, fresh fruits and vegetables, local wines and other goods. We just love stopping by to see what’s new. On our recent visit, we were looking for yellow tomatoes in order to try a new Bloody Mary recipe. Success! Sorry we didn’t bring back any fresh donuts for you Joey!
