Before you go:

- Admission is free. You pay for individual activities or what you pick.
- There are 6 orchards and 26 apple varieties, so you won't run out of fruits to choose from.
- You can download the WishTrip app on your phone to find out which varieties of apples are ready for picking and what row they are in.
- Dogs are allowed but must be on a leash.
- And I must mention, the apple cider donuts are made in-house and utterly delicious.
 

Always call ahead or check out the farm's Fb page before your visit, as weather and crowds may impact open hours and fruit availability.
