A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in North Carolina.

  • Bring closed-toe shoes, sun protection, water, and containers unless the farm supplies them.
  • Call or check the website for today’s picking conditions — mud, rain, and sold-out fields are common.

“Pick this place out of all the other orchards in the Hendersonville area and it did not disappoint. Everything was reasonably priced. Highly recommend the fried apple pie and the Apple turnover and the Apple donuts and really anything. Other thing they got that has Apple in it. Everything was really good. Corn maze was only $5. It was difficult. We didn't have a map which made it interesting but we made our way out. Their jams and jellies were really reasonably priced. I would like to see them. Have pepper jellies in the bigger jars those are hard to find but overall I give it really two thumbs up. We had a great time. There's plenty of stuff to do for kids and adults as well”

“We had a great time at **Grandad's Apples Farm**! Picking apples with the family was a fun experience, with plenty of varieties available and friendly staff to assist us. Afterward, we enjoyed the **Glacier**, an apple slushy topped with ice cream. It was refreshingly sweet and creamy—perfect for cooling down. Overall, Grandad's Apples Farm is a fantastic spot for families and anyone looking to enjoy a day outdoors. I highly recommend it for the apple-picking and the delicious Glacier treat!”

“First visit to Grandad’s Apples. There were many different varieties of apples to choose from. Then containers were full. The main entrance has a gift shop and bakery. The bakery has various apple pastries to choose from and an apple cider slushy. The view of the orchard from the back of the main building is beautiful. There is a pumpkin patch to choose a pumpkin of your choice. It also has a playground and picnic area. I will go back to this location again.”

“Our favorite place to purchase apples and apple pie. We had a bakery and make pies that people would order months in advance for Thanksgiving and Christmas. We buy a Grandad's Apple Pie every time we go because they are so good that it's not worth the extra effort to make one of our own. Plus their price is fantastic for the quality of the pie. Our entire family loves this place. Be warned that lines on the weekends can get long but it's worth the wait.”

“Grandads Apples has delicious apples, but is also an amazing place to visit and enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery while sitting in oversized rocking chairs. Very friendly staff and ongoing events. Great place to take children, as they have a large play area. Pumpkins everywhere in the fall and a large field of pumpkins add a touch of nostalgia to your visit. Enjoy!”

“Granddad’s Orchard is a gem! The place is spotlessly clean and beautifully organized, making it a joy to visit. They offer a fantastic variety of activities for kids, keeping them entertained for hours. The apples are fresh and delicious, and the baked goods are absolutely divine—perfectly greasy and indulgent! Highly recommend for a fun, family-friendly day out.”

“We always love coming here, no matter the season! Whether it's lavender or apples, the food/drinks are delicious and the views are stunning. We love sitting in a rocking chair and just enjoying the view. The grounds and store are well kept and clean.”

“We had such a fantastic day here on the farm! Photo ops, play area, live music, sweet treats, and even a cow cart named after me! We are looking forward to our next visit.”
