Welcome to Centennial Farms and Orchard
We are located in the historic town of Augusta, Missouri in southwestern St. Charles County. Our farm is less than an hour's drive from most parts of St. Louis (see our directions page)
The farm has been owned and operated by our family since 1854. We represent the fourth generation and our grandson Gabe Wright, who manages the farm, represents the sixth generation. Our first orchards were planted in 1969 on what had been a grain and livestock farm.
We offer a "taste of history" along with seasonal fruit and good things made in our farm kitchen. Come visit our market in the 160-year old timber framed barn which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
- Ellen Knoernschild, Owner
- Gabe Wright, Manager
Closed for the Season
Centennial Farms is closed until next July, when the blackberries ripen. In the meantime, we will be selling apple butter, preserves, honey and dressings at the Augusta Christmas Walk on the first two Fridays in November.
Thank you for being our customer in 2022. We will all have many happy memories of this year.
– Ellen and Gabe
