  • Still not showing the entire farm this view provides a glimpse from what is hidden from cars as they travel up route 93 from Boston just 43 miles away. The terraced looking orchard on the right hand side towards the center is Mack's U-Pick 4. The orchard has been grown on the side of the slope. On clear days you can see Boston from the high points of Woodmont Orchard. The line in the center near the top is 102 leading to crossroads mall at the end. South school can be seen to the left of that directly above the Market Basket plaza in the distance. To the far right the dome shaped image surrounded by smaller domes, is the VOR called "MHT" used for aircraft navigation.

  • This closeup of the packing house, shows the antique truck with the Woodmont logo on the side. In any large photographs you order you will find the detail stunning. ImageAbility also has the ability to produce these in larger sizes perfect for corporate and office environments. You may have seen our work at the Londonderry Town Hall in each of the themed conference rooms. Note the rust colored pole on the left hand side in the orchard, this is a fan that runs to keep the air moving when threats of frost or freeze occur in Londonderry, New Hampshire.

  • Woodmont Orchards viewing the farm to the west just above the Route 93 exit 4 off ramp. The red car is about to exit onto Route 102 in this photo. The Woodmont homestead is completely covered with the fall foliage in this view, but the climate controlled storage house can be seen clearly in the center. The loading dock doors show as teeth under the black roof. The farm continues off to the right along Hovey Road up to Spring Road not seen in this image.

  • This view is just about the entire Woodmont Farm, the dark green area on the center left is missing a small piece of the 19 acres on the south west corner of that lot. The Exit 4 ramp was reconstructed in the last decade and Route 93 was cleared for widening after the last lawsuit ended in the summer of 2009. The park and ride bus terminal can be seen in the center of the parking lot near the southbound exit ramp that leads to 102 east and west intersection. The Sears Essentials, once a K-Mart is owned by the Woodmont family and sits on approximately 18.6 acres. The building is about 145,000 square feet of retail space presently configured into two stores. The dark green woodlands on the upper center right is a woodlot for the Estey Saw Mill in Londonderry. The pond in the lower center of the image is located next to the Burger King and belongs to the Cracker Barrel Country Store. This was once the major source of refrigeration (ice) in the region.

  • Zooming in on the orchard clearly visible are ladders, apple bins and the fans that keep the blossoms from freezing in the spring. The New England Rocks litter the landscape, some spread through the fields and some moved to piles or constructed into walls. If you order any of these images as prints, the larger the image the more detail will be visible. All prints are suitable for framing or finishing for display in your home or office. If you have a larger need, in size or for your company contact us at www.ImageAbility.com our custom services are available worldwide.

  • Lots of variety in this image, on the left behind the farm stand (bottom left) are apple trees used for the fresh pressed cider that is squeezed and bottled in the large building with the green roof. Across the road on the upper left are the U-Pick apples clearly marked with the type they are in each row. In the upper center the bars of soft small green plants are strawberries, as well as the similar looking planting along adams on the right. The roadway in the center of the image on the back side (closest to the bottom) has Grapes, Then cherries on the left side of the farm road. On the right hand side are raspberries and blueberries along with other plantings for the farm stand. This area also has peaches, plums and other skinless types of fruit.

  • Sunnycrest farm goes back further than you think, bordering Premier Drive on the west side of the farm. Those homes in that neighborhood can be seen at the bottom of this image. The land has been preserved with open space funds providing a agricultural easement. This prevents development with homes similar to those seen around the farm.

  • Nearby Sunnycrest Farm we flew over the intersection of High Range and Wiley Hill Road. If you look closely you can still see where the telephone pole was near the middle of the intersection in the early 1980's. The barn at the center of the image has a tax abatement on it that encourages preservation. Londonderry has 48 barns in the community.

  • The pastures at the bottom of the image, are used for horses and are rotated for grazing. In the image you can see clearly two horses near the driveway. The large printed images made from these files show great detail. You can even see the tail and main of the horse in a large version!

  • Looking at the front of the farm you can see the pumpkin lining the walkway and the "Magical Pumpkin Patch" to the right of the farm The pond in the center left of the image has a fence around about 1/2 acre if you look close you can see Wilbur the pig as well as a few goats. Children love to feed them when visiting Sunnycrest Farm in the summer and fall picking seasons.

  • When you see the large image of this shot the goats and pig are pressed up against the fence by the parking lot! They are being feed by some lucky visitors to Londonderry New Hampshire. We captured two migrant workers you can see them in the screen show of this image just behind Danny Hicks house, that is the old connected farmhouse on the left hand side. Dan Hicks is often in the fields on one of the tractors, even though his is not involved in the day to day operations.

  • We are still spinning clockwise around the Sunnycrest Farm, those migrant workers can be seen at the edge of the freshly plowed earth one in dressed in white one in black. These men leave their families in Jamaica every year if you see them give them a big wave they always wave back!

  • In the center left of this image a little towards the top you can see the black water tower used to store water used on the farm. The red barn clearly seen by the maple trees is not part of the farm, and was torn down in about 2005. A hidden barn on the north east corner of Adams and High Range (see the white roof in the trees) was torn down in 2008, it was once part of Sunnycrest farm and is now again. The cow stantions that were in the barn were donated to the Londonderry Historical Society.

  • This has a nice view of the strawberry patches in the center bottom of the image. They are open in June through about July 4th every year. They need to be replanted, from time to time, this is why you see the bars of green and brown earth.

  • High Range Road goes directly to the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport from Route 102. The crosswalk in front of the farm is a safe place, everyone slows down and stops in Londonderry.

  • A favorite of locals, the verity is the best in Londonderry, it is not on the main roadway through the center of town. While it lacks the occasional "farmers signs" put up at Mack's Apples by Andy Mack Sr. you can find the farm from 102. On the hill at the corner of Parmenter Road and 102 you will see a sign with what produce is available the 5 months the farm is open. The hill is actually the remains of a grand barn that was at Parmenter Farm before Route 102 owned by Draper Parmenter at one time.

  • Our last shot before we fly over to Parmenter Farm on 102, you can be sure those in the nighborhoods near Sunnycrest Farm are happy Londonderry preserved this farm through open space funds. People that live on Premier Drive, Anthony Drive, Hawthorn Road, Lafayette Road, Macintosh Drive, Lorraine Drive Quentin Drive and of course those that travel on Adams Road and High Range Road smile and wave when you visit the farm next door, Sunnycrest Farm.

  • Looking down on Pillsbury Road we see Mack's U-Pick 3 in the center. The roadway on the other side of the crosswalk leads to a great group of Peach trees ripe at the start of September. The puddles are a place to find children playing in them, many from Massachusetts bring boots and rain gear for the fun!
