Fred Openshaw Farms

Our farm has been in our family for 5 generations. It originally started with Eli Openshaw who moved back to Santaquin, UT to start a medical practice. After starting his practice in Santaquin the Great Depression occurred and so he bought about 10 acres where he propagated different fruit trees and allowed individuals to be able to work on medical bills they had. Slowly over the years, more farmland was purchased and now Fred Openshaw Farms owns 70 acres of orchards. In the orchard blocks, we have tart cherries that are our major crop and then it is followed by peaches, nectarines, plums, pluots, and sweet cherries. We also grow apples and our most popular variety is Honeycrisp apples. Also, the Honeycrisp apples that we culled out are then juiced into Honeycrisp Apple Cider and with this Cider, we also during the summer utilize it to also make Honeycrisp Apple Cider slushies. Part of our mission at Fred Openshaw Farms is "Honoring The Past and Delivering Quality Fruit Through The Future".
