Fall Apple Picking Season is Here
August 23, 2025 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
When our son was little – and beyond – we’d pack up my mom and the dog and head to Great Country Farms almost every weekend to pick whatever was available
Back to School means it is time to pick apples!
We have a wide variety of apple trees, so there is something for everyone and different types of apples ripen throughout September. Whether you prefer sweet or tart apples, we have got you covered. Our friendly staff will be on hand to assist you in finding the perfect apples for your needs.
Check out our Apple Picking Guide for all the details on our apple varieties.
This weekend is peak picking for :
- Gala
- September Fuji
- Golden Supreme
The Yes Farms, Yes Food Corn Maze is open and is our homage to saving farmland in a positive and productive way.
Pro Tip: Weekdays are the least crowded so come after school. Tuesdays are a great day to play hookey and come pick apples! Check out our September Educational Calendar for some great experiences this month included with your farm admission.
Celebrate everything apple with apple picking, our award-winning apple cider donuts, and a romp in our 15-acre play area.
On Saturdays & Sundays, we add in live music, marshmallow roasting, pig races & cider pressing demonstrations.
Check out the Zurschmeide Family’s antique 1865 Cider press. Sample freshly pressed cider and see how it used to be produced!
