Our 2025 Pick-Your-Own Season Opens August 9th

Join us for Pick-Your-Own apples and flowers beginning Saturday, August 9th. We look forward to welcoming you back to the orchard!


Orchard Access Passes

An Orchard Access Pass is required for each person entering the orchard or flower fields, whether picking or not.

  • Children 2 and under are free

  • $3.50 per person – no additional taxes or fees

Purchase Passes in advance online - if we sell out for the day we do not offer walk up passes. This guarantees your ability to pick-your-own when you visit.


Picking Containers (Required for Apple Picking)

After checking in, each group that plans to pick apples must purchase at least one picking container. Options include:

  • Small Bag – $9 (approximately 12 apples)

  • Medium Bag – $16 (approximately 25 apples)

  • Medium Basket – $24 (basket is yours to keep)

  • Large Bag – $24 (approximately 50 apples)

  • Large Basket – $35 (basket is yours to keep)


What's Ripe and Ready

We grow 23 varieties of apples, and most are available for Pick-Your-Own throughout the season. A new variety typically opens each week.

Currently available: Golden Delicious, Stayman Winesap, Fuji & Granny Smith. Limited Evercrisp opening 10/11. 


Pick-Your-Own Flowers

Our flower field features Zinnias, Cosmos, and Pampas Plume.

  • Flower Cup – $12


When Are Passes Released?

Orchard Access Passes are released about one week in advance, based on the number of ripe apples and flowers availabile. Weather, crop conditions, and customer demand determine how many passes are available each week.


How long is the pick-your-own-season?

Our pick-your-own apple season typically runs through October and often into mid-November, depending on weather, crop size, and customer demand. We anticipate the season lasting into mid-November this year, but exact timing can vary. Flower picking continues until the first hard frost, and our Farm Market is open 6 days a week until Christmas Eve 2025.
