We had a really great time picking apples. You don't have far to walk. The only problem is finding…read morethe Apple orchard is very hard. There's no signs at all. You actually have to pull into a cemetery and it's behind the cemetery. The GPS will take you to the right place. It just doesn't look like it's an apple orchard at all. They have some animals (petting zoo) and a small playground to play on. 1/2 Bushel cost $35 but we filled it with 70 apples so that was a great deal! Will come back again!

We have been at a lot of pick your own places and this is not a great one. They said online there…read morewere strawberries but we got to the first location and they said they were out but had another location, so we drove there and then they told us there were no strawberries, despite people walking out with full buckets of strawberries. We convinced them to let us try to find some since we drove all the way there and there strawberry fields are full of weeds and the whole place is poorly run. I would encourage you to look elsewhere.

They also have a very nice selection of some homemade sausages and brats. When I was checking out, they gave me a free sample of their homemade apple cider and it was delicious, but the thing that keeps me coming back for more is their bread. it is a light white loaf that works well for sandwiches and toast. Consider picking up some Ukrainian jelly to spread on it.

DO NOT VISIT! If I could put negative stars I would! Not safe for children! My 7 year old neice got…read moreshocked by the electric fence they had up FEET away from the apple picking orchard. And there was NO sign stating there was an electric fence. She came running back crying terrified at what just happened to her in pain! What a horrible experience. Not to mention also having my 9 year old special needs nephew with a heart condition who could have died from touching that fence if he touched it smh there was 1 person working the entire farm who was not even helpful. No petting zoo, you touch animals who stay caged, zero rides like displayed online, no pony rides NOTHING. It looks like a dead zone farm. Stay away.

The owner does not have good knowledge of farm animals, and along with that, she will let absolutely anybody work for her with no training & prolonged time periods without pay. The horses often work events without breaks for the entire day & the owner frequently forgets the proper tools to care for the horses. The way that the owner acts around clients is unprofessional & possibly frightening to children. She would say things about animals that have passed away as if it were no big deal.

Everyone had a great time, and we're already looking forward to having him back next year. Highly recommend!
