October 20th on...
Late Pick-Your-Own is still great. Pick amazingly rich-flavored Macs, Corts, Macouns, Wickson, Calville Blanc d’hiver, Golden Delicious, and a few surprising odds and ends left in our old trial orchard, nicknamed the Apple Zoo. Make sure to give each variety a bite-test before picking for home - it's ok to drop a bitten apple on the ground! The trees have already dropped a lot, naturally. And, naturally, a lot of creatures will eventually consume them... they won't be "wasted."
Inside the retail stand we have bags of Golden Russet, Esopus Spitzenberg, Calville Blanc, Ashmead's Kernel, Macoun, Cortland, McIntosh, Elstar, Gala, and more...
Please Call (603)448-1511 for freshest info about your favorites. (Apple season changes way faster than our website...)
The apple crop has been huge in most of our orchards, it's still an amazing sight. We started the retail season in early September with Macs and Cortlands. Soon the Macouns came on, then rarer apples such as Ribston Pippin (now picked out),
Later PYO varieties include Golden Delicious (plenty), Wickson (loaded), Calville Blanc (still some on the trees).
DIY hard-cider makers can even pick bittersweet cider-apple varieties, mostly Dabinett, some Harry Masters Jersey...
PLEASE Call (603)448-1511 for freshest info about availability! (Apple season moves fast.)
Plus we offer tractor-drawn wagon rides on fair weekends, two walking loops (1/2 and 1.2 mile) through orchards and woods, and in general a big peaceful place to explore, relax and hang out. Your dogs can come along, as long as they're on leash and you pick up after them.
There’s still a wholesale harvest going on too: It's fun to see our picking crew roll through the yard with big loads of apples!
Activities at the orchard:
Trailer rides through the pick-your-own orchards on nice weekends (not fun in the wet).
Orchard & woods walks whenever we're open.
Plain old exploring. Orchards are amazing!
Sitting around at picnic tables or in our wandering orchard chairs, also plenty of space to bring your own chairs or blankets and hang out in the orchard, or roam!
Groups or parties welcome (call ahead to reserve picnic tables).
