This depends on how quickly the apples drop and how vigorously the orchard is picked. So far we have tons of apples on hand.

There are plenty of apples left to pick of all kinds.

Hi–
Are you going to be open for apple picking on Monday, October 12th (its a holiday). We’d like to bring our granddaughter.

Thanks.

We currently anticipate having apples right through Halloween, however, this depends on Mother Nature. Stay tuned to the website for weekly updates.

Hello – we would like to come this Saturday the 10th – will we able to get pumpkins and apples? also, is there an entrance fee?

We have tons of apples and pumpkins, we’re open from 9 am to 5 pm that day, and there is never an admission fee, and parking is free too. All we ask is that you be kind to the trees and leave your dogs at home as we do not allow them in the orchard for sanitary reasons.

Uta, we come every year. We are late this year because I took a job working weekends, but we are coming out this weekend. I can’t wait to get my hands on all those apples for baking. We are going to buy pumpkins too and spend the weekend as a family baking pies and crisps and eating apples. We’ll see you Saturday!

No, we don’t have any PYO flowers this year. Check out our friends over at Fields of Flowers for a wonderful variety of PYO flowers grown right down the road from us.

Hi,
I was wondering if you would be open for apple picking this coming weekend (17th). I know a group of people that would love to come, but were confused if you would still have fresh apples.
Thanks,
Jennifer

Please check our weekly updates for picking conditions. I think we will have apples next weekend, but the weather is really key as apples will start dropping soon. Our weekend update generally comes out on Thursdays and is right on our home page.
