A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in Ohio.
- 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.
- Wear clothes you don’t mind getting stained; berry juice and field mud travel home with you.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, and the service was top-notch. We’re so thankful for their kindness and professionalism and would recommend them to absolutely anyone planning a wedding!”
“We were married and had our reception at Hillcrest Orchard on 6/25/22. The ceremony and event went off without a hitch! The staff was so friendly, Lindsay and Val guided us through the day and the food was unbelievable! We received so many compliments from our guests on the beauty of the venue, the kindness and helpfulness of the staff and how wonderful the food was! And, it was! Thank you for making our day so great!!”
“I can not say enough good things about this venue. My husband and I got married 7/17/21 and it was absolutely perfect! The venue is beautiful and clean, the bridal suit was perfect for all us girls to get ready in and the food was absolutely perfect! We got so many compliments. All the staff was above and beyond kind. Lindsay and Diane were the sweetest and most helpful. I highly recommend this venue for your special day!”
“Hillcrest Orchards was truly the perfect pick for our wedding. The communication, the venue, the options, everything was truly spectacular. Planning a wedding from 1,000 miles away is scary, but Will and his team made the process incredible smooth and created such an incredible day.”
“This place is amazing!! Family friendly, delicious apples and the donuts!!! Are definitely worth the dozen. I love you can actually pick apples. My family enjoyed the apple cannon”
“Apple picking at harvest time. They have apple cannon but make you pay $15 dollars a barrel instead of picking up the old ones that fell of the tree. Very wasteful😔 (Hence the 4 star rating). Other than that, really nice and clean place, delicious donuts. They charge by the bag, not the pound. (2 sizes you can get). They have a store you can buy things at as well as a place you can rent for events.”
“It was wonderful visiting this place. Spent an amazing time picking Apples and corns. But my only disappointment was all the sunflower farm was already got spoiled due to too much stampings and it was scattered. Pumpkin farm was also good. Overall worth visiting place. Entry ticket was $10, but you can buy the same entry ticket in online for $5.”
“Our favorite place for apple picking. My kids love the corn slide and corn maze. The donuts are the best! We seem to always go at the wrong time to try the food truck and drinks but we'd love to have lunch there one day”
