Mack's Apples
Farm in Londonderry, New Hampshire, United States
Mack's Apples (also known as Moose Hill Orchards) is a farm and orchard in Londonderry, New Hampshire, United States. It is the oldest family-run farm in the state, having been run by the Mack family for eight generations until its sale in 2021.
History
The farm was founded in 1732 when John Mack emigrated from Londonderry, Ireland, to Londonderry, New Hampshire. In the 1800s, the family began to concentrate on growing apples, and the farm was formally registered as a business in 1962. The farm eliminated its wholesale operations in the early 2000s. In 2015, Andy Mack Sr. transferred ownership to his son, Andy Mack Jr., and his daughter-in-law, Carol Mack.
In 2021, after eight generations of Mack family ownership, the farm was sold to MHO Acquisitions LLC who intend to continue operating the orchard.
