Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you allow Pets?
    Dogs are welcome but due to new Food Safety Regulations dogs are not permitted in the orchard or in the Apple Barn. You are welcome to bring small to medium size dogs on a leash or that you can walk/carry on the rest of the Farm. Please make sure to take them to the woods to use the bathroom or clean up after them with your own waste bag.
  • Can you you walk to the orchard instead of riding the tractor?
    You are welcome to walk to the orchard but will still need to pay and get your U-Pick sticker.
  • What to wear apple picking?
    You will be primarily on mountain sides so closed-toe shoes are recommended. Dress as you would for walking/hiking outdoors.
  • Can you accomodate School Field Trips and Group Tours?
    School groups or field trips of 15 or more can book Farm Tours weekdays by calling ahead. Tour bus groups that want to pick, please call ahead. Please call for group rates.
