“The best apple farm I’ve ever been to in 30 years, and we go every year. It’s very inclusive with lots of different kinds of people. Trans and queer friendly including being good with pronouns. The family and their employees are friendly and knowledgeable. The corn maze is super fun. The orchard is lovely to walk through, the apples are diverse and healthy, and there are lots of different pumpkins, including good pie pumpkins. Prices are reasonable and quite low. Chickens, bunnies, and goats you can feed and pet. If you want an actual apple and pumpkin picking spot, not a mini-amusement park farm with an entry fee and a pile of pumpkins, this is the place to go.”

“Great place to bring your family for apple and/or pumpkin picking. They also have a fun corn maze to keep busy. Little store on site sells local apple cider as well as honey, jams, apples and apple pies. They also have an area outside with chickens and goats on the weekend. Little fox Food truck will also be there and open on the weekends. Highly recommend stopping by this place on the weekend.”

“We love coming here year after year. It's not a huge Orchard. They don't have all the same attractions some other places do. But, that's what we love about it. It's never super crowded. The staff are friendly. It's the perfect relaxing family outing for a fall weekend afternoon. Great apple picking. Not super expensive. And a small but challenging corn maze!”

“This is our go to Apple farm. The workers are always so friendly & it's a fun place to bring kids, though we do miss the goats. I hope in another year it will be safe enough to bring them back. We took our grandson there today & rode in the tractor pulled wagon. The apples are so yummy!!”

“We’ve been going here for 5 years for pumpkin picking fun and the cost has stayed low. The corn maze is nice and challenging. The playground, goats, tractor rides and hay bales are fun for the kids. The workers are friendly and very welcoming.”

“Wonderful event for the whole family! The corn maze is a blast! The pumpkins & apples are reasonably priced.. great time for all ages! Take your family & friends... make a day of it... you won't be disappointed! I highly recommended!”

“This is our favorite orchard of the 6 or so we've been to over the years. Very good facilities, very nice staff, easy to access everything. Good little food truck, and a nice little gift shop. Highly recommended for families.”

“We were able to pick 4 types of apples and enjoyed the corn maze. Not huge, but just the right size for us with plenty of cute places to take pics (if you can get your family to cooperate).”
