About

The Aaron family heartily welcomes you to visit and browse!  They take pride in offering the third generation of personalized service and a friendly, helpful atmosphere.

Mack Aaron's Apple House has a history of expertise in growing apples in Gilmer County that dates back to 1944.  Bill's father, Mack, was only 4 years old when his parents, Otis Shafter Aaron and Reba Ellis Aaron purchased a farm of over 200 acres from Bob Ayers  to produce apples for both commercial and retail sales. Popular apples of the time have included Red Delicious, Rome Beauty, Ben Davis, Shockley, Limbertwig and Gilmer Pippin.  Some of these varieties have been replaced with heartier, more popular ones.  

In 1977 Mack and Joyce Aaron built nearby on the current location, opening for the 1978 season. The family oriented business continued wholesale and retail sales with emphasis on friendly service.  In 2008 Mack and Joyce turned day to day operations over to  their son and daughter-in-law, Bill and Gina Aaron.

In addition to apples, peaches and nectarines, they also offer several other types of produce as well as a multitude of tasty goodies ready to enjoy.  Special care is given to the delicious hand made fried pies.  You are guaranteed to find at least 11 varieties to choose from!  Come by soon and pick your favorites!
