Children

Children under age 7 are not included when considering the charge for apple bags.

We LOVE it when children visit and families enjoy the farm experience together!

When it is not fun... when unsupervised children unknowingly cause harm to other humans, animals (including our chickens and pets), and our orchards, berry bushes, and crop fields. You know your child. If your underage child needs constant supervision, or if you have other children under your care that you do not know well enough, they must always remain with you and be supervised in their activities on our farm. You are responsible for their actions. Yes, we could put them on full-time hard labor (kidding)... but you still have to bring them home.

Please visit our FAQs page for tips on having your best apple-picking experience yet, and follow us on Facebook for updates throughout the season!
