The Gregson family has such a wonderful set up of fields to pick from, pony's and goats for the kids and a country farm store with hot homemade apple cider to sip on. Plus they shake the tree on a machine for you, wrap it up and help you tether it to the car for the ride home. Such a fun time and wonderful memory!!

This a great family day trip and absolutely the best cider and apple butter I have ever tasted in my life. It's about an hour drive from Northern Virginia, but the apples were amazing - especially the golden delicious and Fuji. We are so fortunate to have such great produce here in VA like the peaches and apples. Its priceless to show your kids that you can pick fruit from the tree when its at the peak flavor.

I've never had fruit in my salad before, she told me it was a must, and she did not disappoint, always smiling.

You pay for your apples at the store. There you can find pies, apple cider, bread, canned goodies and they also sell meats. The apple season began a month ago and most of the apple trees were picked at height level. We used an apple picker to get the apples high up. It was a beautiful, clear day ; about 80 degrees. Watch your ankles as the ground is uneven and there can be a lot of apples on the ground under and near the trees. There were other vendors near the store and portable toilets throughout the property. We are hoping to pick peaches next season!
