About Us
Ark Farms is a small family-run orchard dedicated to helping people grow their own fruit trees and backyard orchards. We believe planting a tree is one of the most meaningful things you can do — for your home, your family, and the future.
Our farm was started out of a love for fruit trees, gardening, and the idea that more people should have access to growing their own food. Too often fruit trees feel complicated or out of reach, but we believe they should be simple, affordable, and accessible to anyone who wants to plant one.
At Ark Farms, we focus on growing heirloom and traditional tree varieties — trees with history that have been grown and cherished for generations. By sharing these varieties, we hope to help preserve them so they can continue to be planted, enjoyed, and passed down for many years to come.
We are committed to growing healthy trees and sharing the knowledge that helps them thrive. Whether you're planting a single tree in your yard or starting a small orchard, our goal is to make the process easier, more approachable, and more rewarding.
A Family Farm
Ark Farms is run by Noah and Andrei Besant, along with their six children.
Much of the work happens with kids nearby in the orchard — helping plant, water, and learn alongside the trees.
For us, farming isn’t just about producing trees. It’s about building something meaningful that our family can grow alongside and pass on to the next generation.
We believe farms should be places where families work together, learn together, and create something lasting.
What We Offer
At Ark Farms we provide:
• Fruit trees for backyard growers and homesteads
• Ornamental trees that bring beauty to your landscape
• Orchard planning guidance for those starting small orchards
• Tree planting and care services for local customers
Our goal is to help customers feel confident planting trees, even if it’s their very first one.
Why Buy Trees From Ark Farms?

Our orchard focuses on heirloom and traditional tree varieties. These are trees that have been grown and loved for generations, often valued for their flavor, beauty, and resilience. By growing and sharing these varieties, we hope to help preserve them so they can continue to be enjoyed by future generations.
