    The best experience! Lots of space inside, very warm ambiance. There are ample benches and seats by…read morefirepits outside and an area with food trucks and to apple pick yourself. The apple cider donut stand was absolutely amazing. Theyre making them fresh right there! We got a couple fresh apples as well and they were phenomenal. Service was nice and they're busy! Highly recommend going here for an city escape, especially in the fall.

    Had a brief visit here that was sadly affected by a torrential downpour (that came with a tornado…read morewarning). We had fun plucking zennias ($.50 each) and wanted to see the sunflowers but did not get a chance to since we saw lightning. Within ten minutes of seeing lightning, a heavy thunderstorm began, which we waited out in the cidery, which is in a large barn. There were three bathrooms and a shared sink. There were also lots of snacks, ciders and spirits available for purchase. You could even buy crackers / cheeses / meats to make your own charcuterie board! It looked like there was a private event while we were there as well as another private event in the evening. I only tried the Kitchen Sink cider which I honestly didn't like at all, but at least the packaging was nice! I also have to give a shout out to the people working at the stand near the parking lot for giving me a free sunflower stem since I didn't get a chance to pick one!

    Went here on a Sunday in late September, and there was a decent amount of apples to pick! They have…read morea ton of different kinds to choose from. You do have to pay admission to pick, but you get to pick way more than apples. Veggies and fruit are available if you go at the right time. We got 3 large pumpkins and an entire bag of apples for a little less than 35 bucks! Definitely worth it to stop here!

    You are presumed to be a criminal and are treating accordingly at check-out…read more I brought my disabled patient to the orchard for a safe, therapeutic outing, but he was left traumatized by the excessive post-picking interrogation, intense vehicle search, and authoritarian bullying by their plainclothes security. As I was held at check-out inside the building, an unnamed woman with no identification confronted me in an accusatory manner demanding to know what else we had picked. I told her everything we picked was on the counter. She asked what was in my car. I told her my patient, his rollator, and his mobility scooter. Not much else fits in a little KIA. She left me inside the building at the register and went out to my car. With no explanation to my startled patient, she began rooting through my car. He was alone and felt defenseless in a frightening situation. I don't know if I'll ever be able to get him to leave his house again for an outing like this. He is traumatized. Columbia County NY has many PYO options that are more friendly and less terrifying than this horrible place.

    I thought I was done with maple weekend 2026. I had five maples on Saturday alone! But my wonderful…read morepassenger pointed out, as I headed south through Massachusetts - "oh, I think that's another maple event?" "Where?" So I looked around and saw the cars parked behind me. U-turn. Pack into the gravel lot. And... go pet the cows. Yup, this is truly a farm. The barn smells like animals and you can pet the goats. All the staff is friendly and there to explain maple, farming, whatever you'd like. For maple weekend? Excellent. We went into the Calf-a (sound that out) and there was a fairly long waitlist, but passed the time in the maple steam room with free samples! and perhaps the most interesting samples of all. Maple mustard. Various maple dips. And while they were not cheap, the staff did work together to get me some Grade B maple, which is so hard to find nowadays. It's now in my fridge. Once our names were called, we found a great variety on the menu for a very reasonable price. I got two pecan pancakes, fresh made, and my lady got one maple cranberry, made with the cranberries that were used to infuse the cranberry maple syrup. Our table got an entire pitcher of maple to pour as we pleased - yes, I do please. I took a pair of maple donuts to go, and they do not taste like cider donuts. The maple stands out. Fresh made and soft. I know maple is March, but this farm seems like a winner any time of the year you're passing by.

    Hidden gem! What a fun, educational, and generally wonderful experience. I would say this is…read moreappropriate for kids aged 0 to probably tween. The property is huge and beautiful, with lots of games and animals to feed and discover. The playground is huge and actually a few different playgrounds. Admission is a little steep, but well worth it given you can spend hours here and also support a small, local business.
