Our take

What little the record actually confirms

Musgrave Orchard is located at 8798 N Old State Rd 37 in Bloomington, Monroe County, with a listed phone number of 812-339-5006. Beyond the address and phone, this record is unusually thin: no hours, no season dates, no pricing, and no apple varieties were found anywhere in the sources checked — Yelp, Bloomingpedia, and applepickingorchards.com, all read September 2, 2026. An attempt to fetch applepickingorchards.com’s dedicated Musgrave page failed with a connection or SSL error, so even that secondary source is only represented here through a search-result summary, not a direct reading.

What is confirmed, in general descriptive terms rather than specifics: the orchard presses its own fresh apple cider on site and sells apple-themed gifts alongside its fruit.

A modest operation by description

Bloomingpedia describes Musgrave as a modest, farm-stand-style operation, currently run by owners who reportedly took it over some years after 1998. That paints a picture of a small, low-key farm rather than an attraction-driven destination — no hayrides, mazes, or festivals appear anywhere in the sources checked, which is consistent with a genuinely small operation rather than simply an information gap for a bigger one.

Being honest about what this record can’t tell you

This is worth stating plainly: of all the Indiana orchards in this research batch, Musgrave has the least verifiable operational detail. There’s no way, from this record alone, to know what day of the week it’s open, what time to arrive, what a visit costs, or which apple varieties you’d find on any given trip. That’s not a reflection of the orchard’s quality — a modest, low-key farm may simply have a limited or outdated web presence — but it does mean this record functions more as a “this place exists and does these general things” entry than a trip-planning guide.

Fresh cider is the one concrete offering

The one specific, useful thing this record can point to is fresh-pressed apple cider made on site, alongside apple-themed gifts. If cider pressed at the source is what you’re after and you’re already near Bloomington, that’s a real reason to consider a call to Musgrave — just don’t expect to plan the trip online first.

What to check before you go

Given how little is confirmed here, call 812-339-5006 before making any plans — to confirm the orchard is currently operating, get actual hours, ask what’s available to pick or buy, and find out pricing. Checking Musgrave’s Facebook page directly (musgraveorchard on Facebook, per the record’s source list) may also surface more current information than this research pass could capture.

Bottom line

Musgrave Orchard appears to be a genuine, modest, low-key farm stand near Bloomington with its own fresh-pressed cider — but this record is one of the thinnest in the Indiana research batch, with no confirmed hours, dates, pricing, or variety list. Treat it as a lead worth a phone call rather than a place you can plan a specific visit around from this information alone.
