“We had a wonderful time here. I went with my daughters and three grandchildren. One of my daughters brought her beloved pup. This place had lots of things to do from toddler age to ten. And it was also very friendly for the pup with multiple water stations throughout the facility. There were small play areas for toddlers throughout the facility. And everyone that I talked to was so kind and knowledgeable. Entering the facility gave you access to the petting zoo and if you wanted to, you could purchase food to give to the animals. But you could also walk in and just watch them and interact with those who were as curious about you. There was a big round rock climbing wall, and swings and an area with tricycles surrounded by hat bales for the little ones to play on. The Apple cannon was great. Axe throwing for young and “mature”. Bean bag toss And the hay ride was long enough to be magical. We will definitely go back.”

“The Julian Apple Orchard is absolutely worth the drive! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed each creative aspect of the farm, from the fresh apple slushies and shooting apples from the apple cannon to picking our own pumpkins! The “sisters” will greet you upon arrival at the entrance booth, where you can also enjoy a friendly smile and purchase your tickets. The entire orchard was full of other activities, a map that helps guide you to different activities, and even offers hay rides around their farm! You’ll feel like a kid again as you take a hay ride, share some apple cider, and rove through fields of fresh flowers and pumpkins! When you leave, the sisters will help you check out with your pumpkins and if you ask them to sing their special “Sisters” song, you’ll be blown away by their beautiful voices! 12/10 recommend to kids and adults who want to experience the fall feeling in California!”

“We stopped at Julian Farm and Orchard at the last minute, and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. There is an entry fee based on what activities you want to participate in. The farm is large and there are multiple activities for visitors. There were lots of people there, but it did not feel crowded at all. Some of the activities are free, while others require an additional charge. They have lots of photo spots throughout the farm. I am sure we will visit this farm again.”

“Excellent staff and crew inside and out of the farm. The layout was well thought out which helped keep crowding down. All the activities were fun like the apple cannons and axe throwing. All run by people who absolutely loved their job. My first pumpkin patch and I can see myself returning as well.”
