We are a family run apple orchard located in Jefferson, Iowa. From humble beginnings dating back to 1917, Deal's Orchard has grown to its present size of 45 acres, selling our produce in many central Iowa grocery stores. We have over 25 varieties of Iowa apples as well as tomatoes, sweet corn, pumpkins, holiday gift baskets, and plenty of other seasonal fruits and vegetables. In 1999 we planted our first crop of Scotch Pine trees and now have a wide selection of Christmas trees on our Tree Farm. In 2011 we started our newest adventure by becoming only one of two establishments in the state of Iowa to produce hard cider. All of our cider is pressed, fermented, and bottled at our orchard.

These are pics of people enjoying the elevator ride to the enclosed observation deck to look out over the community of Jefferson and surrounding countryside. It is beautiful at all times of the year!

Great spot to stop and see beautiful bird photos and read original poetry. Nice seating to people watch and to listen to the bell concerts they have from the Mahanay Bell Tower.
