“Do you like the most aromatic strawberries in early summer? Do you like the juiciest peaches in August? Do you like small delicious cucumbers? Are you looking for fleshy, juicy, amazingly tasty and amazingly smelling tomatoes? The most delicious sour juicy cherries? Then you are here!- to this farm Heckman Orchards, which is maintained with love and care by a family of farmers. Everyone is so friendly here! the products are so delicious here. Once you buy products - vegetables, fruits, berries, greens and flowers from this farm, you will come back here again and again! To pick strawberries in the field with your own hands in June, to pick cherries from the branches in early July, to buy baskets of peaches in August, to choose the variety of apples in September that you want to buy or pick on the farm, and then ask to mix all the varieties in one basket to try and enjoy both sweet and sour, and honey, and duchesse and the juiciest apples. You will come again to choose the most beautiful and bright pumpkins for decoration in October. And finally in December you’ll be here again to bring a beautiful Christmas tree from Heckman Orchards to your home. Then, in the new year, you will wait for spring again, so that the wonderful farm opens and everything starts again - everything that so beautiful, everything that so wonderful, everything that natural, ripe and fragrant.”

“Heckman Orchards is a wonderful place for truly fresh, local produce. The apples are incredibly delicious, beautifully fragrant, and always in perfect condition, with a very large selection to choose from. They also offer amazing beets and onions, as well as tasty pumpkins and many other fresh vegetables. Everything is local, high-quality, and full of natural flavor. You can really taste the difference. A fantastic spot for anyone who values fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables. Highly recommended!”

“I had a great experience picking strawberries at Heckman Orchards. They were easily the most delicious strawberries I’d ever eaten. Additionally, the have a barn store full of local goods. I’ve bought delicious local honey, mushrooms, fruit, and even naturally purple popcorn. All the workers are so kind and helpful which makes any experience here easy and fun. I’ll be coming back and can’t wait for more seasonal delights.”

“Terrible, what a rip off. Went in this morning to get fruits and vegetables using wic checks. She said plums and zucchini were not on the list of approved vegetables and fruits from wic. (They are) So I have to pay I can’t use the checks. I got 2 zucchini and 2 plums and half gallon apple cider. (I knew I would have to pay for the apple cider) $13.. my total amount was $31.. I didn’t get a lot”
