About Us

Welcome To Our Family Farm

Reece Family in Apple Orchards,  Apple Picking in Ellijay, North Georgia

Our Story

BJ Reece Orchards began in the 1960s and was a tradition for John Reece when he and his wife Rachel started running the family business. Located in Ellijay, on the eastern side of Gilmer County, the farm is now over 200 acres of apples (and growing) and 30 acres of peaches. We also grow asian pears, nectarines and seasonal vegetables. You can visit our Market & Bakery to purchase seasonal produce and our world famous fried pies. At BJ Reece Orchards, we want you to come play and enjoy our family friendly atmosphere and some of the best apples in North Georgia.

The Story Continues

A new generation, John and Rachel Reece's son, Taner and his wife Sarah opened Reece's Cider Co. across the street from the apple house in 2021. They offer 16 varieties of hard cider made from apples grown in our orchards. This year they will start producing fresh cider for our market.

Our Team

We have a great team of people who help maintain our crops year round. During the busy fall season, it takes a village to run the farm. Some of our friends have worked multiple seasons, also recruiting their children to help, extending the traditions of BJ Reece Orchards across our community.
