Sweet, aromatic, and crisp
The orchard since 1828
Brace’s has grown alongside the Back Mountain while remaining a working family orchard rooted in Dallas.
The Brace family began growing fruit here nearly two centuries ago. Today, the orchard continues the same hands-on work—tending the rows, pressing cider, baking seasonal favorites, and welcoming families back.
Inside the market
The counters change with the harvest. Expect fresh apples and pears, pressed cider, pies, turnovers, cakes, cookies, and cider donuts—along with the handwritten price cards and familiar signs that make the market feel like Brace’s.
