Years ago, our Web Devel­oper Joe Carey designed a web­site for Apple Hill Orchard located south of Mor­gan­ton, NC. Recently, Joe got an e-​mail from the owner Harley Pre­witt ask­ing that we update his site with a new look and added functionality.

Harley and his fam­ily have built a thriv­ing busi­ness from their apple orchard and reg­u­larly draw upwards of 800 vis­i­tors on Sat­ur­days dur­ing apple sea­son. Many of these vis­i­tors are from out­side of Burke county, so his web­site plays a cru­cial role in bring­ing vis­i­tors to the orchard. It was impor­tant that we pro­vide a site that is user friendly, easy to nav­i­gate and looks great!

For their new web­site, we cre­ated a fresh design with col­ors pulled straight from the orchard. The site is built on a con­tent man­age­ment sys­tem that allows Harley to man­age his web­site mak­ing updates and adding con­tent. A scrolling news ticker at the top of the page shows the lat­est news from his blog. The newslet­ter signup form is part of a self-​contained newslet­ter sys­tem, com­plete with dou­ble opt-​in and unsub­scribe func­tions, that allows Apple Hill Orchard to cre­ate and send their own newsletters.

We believe this new site will serve the orchard for sev­eral years. We appre­ci­ate the return busi­ness and are excited to be con­nected with another suc­cess­ful local busi­ness in Burke county.
