Weekend U-Pick Apples 2022 is now officially closed.
Thanks to everyone who came out to pick with us, we appreciate your loyalty and patience as 2022 was quite the tough apple growing season!
As always, you can visit our market store - open daily - for apples already picked and ready to take home.

Projected ready dates of varieties are listed below - to be updated as we get closer - which is always subject to change depending on weather and demand. As we go later into the season, be prepared to walk into the orchard further to find trees with fruit. The rows are 700 feet long, and eventually, only the farthest trees have apples on a given row. We are not able to "re-stock" the apple trees... yes, we’ve been asked this!
Please note the 2022 crop has experienced some serious hardships including a nine week drought and a 26 degree night in late April, causing damage to many apples' development and significant crop losses. Unlike last year, where the trees were heavy with apples, you will be walking and looking more. Please pick with great care as supplies are limited. thank you for your understanding and patience.
Also - if you encounter very high grass that's an indication to not go into that row/area. Thanks!
