Absolutely no sampling! It makes us sad to have to clean up partially-eaten apples off the ground, not to mention unsanitary.
U-Pick apples are charged by the half-bushel. Pre-payment is required, and a deposit is charged for the bushel basket, which you will get back upon return of the basket.
The minimum amount you can purchase is 1 half-bushel for a $15 pre-payment before going out to pick
We are also charging a $5 deposit which you will get back when you return the bushel basket (so pay $20 up front, get $5 back when you return the bushel)
We will allow a maximum of 3 people (children included) per half-bushel into the orchard.
There will be no refunds.
We may limit the number of groups allowed in the orchard at any one time to avoid crowding.
You must check-in at the market first, and we will direct you from there.
You can keep the plastic liner with your apples in it, but you must return the bushel basket to the market after you are done picking.
No bags or containers other than what we provide you are allowed into the orchard.
Please do not overfill your bushel. If your apples are falling off your bushel basket, it is too full.
Disobeying the rules, disrespecting others’ personal space, picking where you ought not to be, or causing damage will not be tolerated, and you will be asked to leave without a refund.
We all love our pets, but no animals are allowed in the orchard.
