Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at 706-276-3048  if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Pricing For U-Pick varies depending on what size bag you purchase for picking (1/2 peck, 1 peck, 1/2 bushel) and what admission package your purchase. Click Here for Pricing Information. *Please note that you must purchase admission AND a U-Pick bag to pick apples.


You decide what size U-Pick bag you would like to purchase (1/2 peck, 1 peck, 1/2 bushel). You can ONLY fill up the U-Pick bags that you paid for, you will not be allowed to put apples in backpacks, strollers, or personal baskets. If you would like to use a personal basket for photos, you may dump the apples out of the U-Pick bag and return them back to the bag before you leave. If you pick more apples than your bag will hold you will be asked to purchase an additional bag when you exit. If you do not pay, this is considered stealing. 


Yes, the orchards are accessible to all family members. This is an operating farm and some of the terrain can be difficult to navigate strollers. For seniors and small children it can be a lot of walking. We do recommend letting small children use the bathroom before they enter the orchards, bring water if it is a hot day, and wear comfortable footwear. 


Yes, dogs are welcome in the orchards. They are not allowed to enter the market or petting zoo area for safety reasons. They must be on a leash. We do ask that you clean up after your pet. 


You can check our U-Pick Calendar for what apples are available to pick. Our staff will point you in the direction of parts of the orchard available for apple picking. Some areas may be blocked off because those apples are not available or ready to be picked yet.


We offer a variety of farm fun activities like our petting zoo, corn box, rubber duck races, farm slide and more. Click Here to learn more.


We offer U-Pick Rain or Shine. We will pause activities if there is lightening in the area.
