Before you go

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

  • 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.
  • Arrive earlier in the day for cooler weather and better selection during peak weekends.
  • Cash still helps at smaller stands even when cards are accepted.

“I bought a box to share with my Mom this Christmas. They are so good. My kids loved them too and ate a good portion of the box. They are addicting. The apricots are bright and tart and almost melt into the dollop of caramel. The dark chocolate was a nice contrast to the sweetness. These candies are a new holiday tradition for our family. The trip to the farm stand is a fun outing too, even when they aren't selling chocolate caramel apricot bites from heaven.”

“Beautiful location , surrounded by mountains, lovely autumn foliage. They have fresh fruit -apples, plums, prunes , apricot , jam, dry fruit and honey. They don’t have fruit picking available for visitors but can walk around the property and enjoy the greenery. The fruit quality is top notch, picked the best quality red apples 🍎”

“The farmers are nice and the produce is good. It just happened to come up for berry picking, per google search, which is not correct. But they have delicious looking tomatoes and peaches, and 3 adorable fluffy cats. And apple, orange, lemon and apricot trees you can check out. And lots of old farming equipment and trucks.”

“Good ole fashioned family run orchard. Like taking a step back in time. Worth it to go there just to feel the vibe of an authentic farm. Plus the fruit is delicious. We should all support this place.”

“Great apricots! Small but very tasty and other stone fruits. And nice people that work here working hard to bring the tastiest organic fruit possible....and they got me hooked :-)”

“The Novakovich family have been growing the best cherries for decades now and their apricots and delectable as well! They take card, so make sure you go and get a bunch today!”

“The dries apricots are delicious! My family loves the ones dipped in chocolate. You can't just eat one so make sure to buy a lot!”

“Google map said the place was open. But it was closed. I checked out the website too, it mentioned I could visit the Novakovich Orchards on a Sunday, as they were closed only on a Saturday. I visited Novakovich Orchards on a Sunday in the afternoon. I drove for an hour and half just to enjoy the Sunday have some fresh produce”
