2025 Pick-Your-Own Calendar
Fall Season
Apple Picking
Don’t forget about our famous apples that draw visitors from all over, making it one of the most vibrant and bustling seasons at the farm. Our apple-picking begins in late August and continues through mid-October. The farm has five orchards with over 60 varieties of apples. Some of these apples are perfect for eating and baking, while others are used to make our famous sweet and hard apple cider.
Pumpkin Stand
Nothing welcomes the fall season more than pumpkins! In our fall outdoor pumpkin stand at the farm store, you’ll find a large selection of pumpkins, gourds, specialty pumpkins, corn stalks, and bales of hay to take home. Grab your pumpkin from early-September until mid-October. While our sugar pumpkins are to carve and create jack-o'-lanterns, our assorted gourds are best used for decoration.
PLUS! Cut your own giant, dried sunflower heads from our sunflower field for seeds and fall crafts on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday only. ($3 or 2 for $5).
FALL WEEKENDS ON THE FARM
Start fall weekends a little early with afternoon apple picking and hard cider! Every Friday 2:30-5:30 pm 9/5 - 10/24, grab food from guest food trucks, glass of hard cider, pumpkins and apples from the farm store or just enjoy fall on the farm with free live music. Each date weather dependent.
