How Our Apple Pies Are Made

At Mann Orchards, our apple pies are a customer favorite. The apple pie recipe is our original and dates back to the 1950s when Ruth Mann introduced the family’s beloved pie to the public through the family farmstand. Since then, we have sold hundreds of thousands of pies.
