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

“Wonderful location by the river and away from the road. Picturesque, charming, beautiful, this place came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. Kids and I loved picking a variety of delicious apples and having a picnic by the river. You can also buy your picnic fixings here - bread and wine and cheese and all. Bring an empty cooler to load up on local meats as well. Special place, special day”

“Agri tourism at its best! Wonderful U-pick-em orchards or a general store if you want the fruit already picked. Wines made from the fruit onsite! Owner-operators are super friendly and welcoming. Learned a lot about the industry in a 20 minute conversation. Amazing story of how a coal lease turned into a working farm...”

“We've been stopping here for years! It's such a beautiful setting on the North Fork of the Gunnison River, and they have Adirondack chairs beside the river where you can picnic with all of the local food they sell. And the wines are wonderful!”

“Went to this beautiful place to pick up cherries. We had a great time picking up the sweetest rainier and bing cherries. Fantastic weather and great activity if you want to scape the heat. 10 lbs later I need some recipes”

“Very nice little orchard and winery. The sales lady allowed me to taste all of their wines for the $5 and keep the wine glass! A little bit of a hike to the cherry and rasberry orchards.”
