We had the best fall day trip to Jonamac Orchard. So much to do beyond apples .... animals (goats, chickens, sheep, ponies & even a camel), several play areas, paint ball target range, flower fields, cider house, corn maze, wagon ride to the pumpkin patch, music stage and gift shop! Definitely something for everyone. Be sure to try a cider donut, caramel apple and the kettle corn ... all freshly made throughout the day on site . Loved the friendly staff. read more

This is one of our favorite fall spots to visit. We love visiting this Orchard during the week! It is so kid friendly and affordable! Sure they don't have some of the attractions that they have during the weekends but we find that our experience is much better during the week. We avoid the crowds, and it's MUCH less expensive. My favorites include the petting zoo, the obstacle course, and the slides! Their animals are SO friendly and affectionate. We always spend so much time with their goats. The layout is very nice and open and its easy to have fun without running into people constantly. My only complaints are mostly due to being spoiled by our local orchard. I wish they served fresh/hot food during the week and their store prices are a bit egregious. Also, their ciders/wines aren't very good, they lean dry and are not palatable for me. Overall an amazing place worth visiting. read more

Outstanding orchard! Really enjoyed our time at the Jonamac Orchard. It's great for everyone to enjoy from adults, teens and kids. We went as a group of 4 adults, 1 seven year old and 3 teens. They have a shaded area you can rent for three hours that includes benches and tables and a lit fire pit! We roasted s'mores of all kinds! Bought hard cider and wine from the cider house there and relaxed for a bit. We went on a hayride, shot apples, picked apples, took plenty of photos with the many photo opps, shopped the country store, ate delicious apple desserts and the kid played in the huge play area. There was live music, food trucks. There is even a pumpkin patch. Highly recommend!! read more

Not what it used to be. Just ok. Everything is extra, petting zoo, dried corn for kids to play, jump play mat. And no more warm donuts. Everything is made ahead, possibly frozen and thawed out. Apples were good. $18 for a dozen donuts. read more

Great day with my son, birthday brother, and a friend picking apples. My suggestion is to save room for the pazzaz apples. Big and delicious! Those are my favorite apples! Also picked empire and Jonomac. Bought one bag of honey crisp apples. It was a beautiful day! We paid $14 per person for the entry fee and $16 per bag. It was cheaper than other places. read more

The manager at the bakery has an attitude problem. She has no respect for customers. Everything else is great

This place needs to do something about their fly situation. You can't walk anywhere without being swarmed. Open garbage bins and nasty discarded apples all over the place do not help at all. This has never been a problem in the past. read more

When it comes to apple orchards, you can do the "theme park" orchards or the "actual orchard" orchards. Jonamac is definitely the theme park version. Although you can buy tickets in advance, it doesn't save you time at the orchard. Unfortunately, you'll have to wait in line with all the people buying tickets with cash. You will save a few bucks buying online, however. The wait to get in is disappointing, but understandable. Just budget that into your timeline. When you enter, you'll pass lots of kid-friendly activities. The orchard itself is very small, and the trees are tiny. When we arrived October 7, most of the trees had been pretty well picked over. There were maybe 10 rows of apples available for picking. If you're looking specifically for apples, there are better options, like the nearby Honey Hill Orchard in Waterman. Jonamac does earn decent marks for the children's activities. There's a corn bin where your kids can play and slide. There are a couple of games inside. There's a trough where you can pump water and send rubber ducks down a chute. There's a slide and a petting zoo and one of those jumping pillows. There's a cider house, but we didn't go in because the line was out the door. Food trucks roll in around noon. The crowds really swell around that time. You can also buy pumpkins We got fresh cider and donuts from the bakery shop at the front. If you have small children, Jonamac is pretty good. If you're looking for bushels and bushels of apples, you'll probably want to go somewhere else with a more robust harvest. read more

Review for the Bakery - Visit on Sunday, 9/21/25 I visit the bakery specifically to purchase baked goods. Unfortunately, I've had consistently negative experiences with one of the staff members--an older woman who works in the bakery area. This was not my first encounter with her, and while I initially gave her the benefit of the doubt, her rude and dismissive attitude has remained the same over multiple visits. Most recently, on Sunday, 9/21, her demeanor was once again unfriendly and unwelcoming. In contrast, the younger staff members are always pleasant, attentive, and helpful, which I greatly appreciate. If you're visiting the bakery, I recommend seeking assistance from the younger team members for a better experience. read more

Perfect place for a day trip with the family. No long lines , friendly staff and tons to do for all age ranges. Great vibes from Apple Picking and Corn mazes to the petting zoo and tractor rides. Don't forget to stop and grab of the best most fresh Apple products at the shop. Apple cider donuts and a caramel apple are a must! read more

We absolutely love Jonamac Orchard. This is a great place to take children. There are never too many people that you can't enjoy yourself. So many fun activities for the kids to do. We love the maze. We love the treats. We highly recommend that you and your family take the time and enjoy everything this Orchard has to offer. read more

Jonamac Orchard is a fantastic little family owned pick-your-own orchard that we visited with our kids this weekend. We went on a weekday so were able to get in without paying the entrance fee. Half peck bags were $16 each; although seemingly steep, each bag held 12 very large apples, estimated 4+ lbs so a reasonable price per pound. There were play areas for the kids that appealed to both my grade school child and my pre-K child. A food truck was slinging Chicago dogs for a reasonable price ($6 per dog). Rows that were open for picking were clearly marked and still had plenty of apples on the trees. The apples were large and juicy with hardly any insect damage. The bakery had amazing baked goods. We tried the doughnuts, apple pie, caramel apple, and cider; I'd certainly purchase all of them again. My kids have already asked if we can come back next year when we visit family. read more

Jonamac is very family friendly with lots to do for kids! Lots of fun "free' activities and the $5 wristband is worth it for the more high end activities. All the facilities and grounds were super clean and well maintained. The donuts and snacks were all delicious and the option of the cider house with wine and beer was a bonus. Wish the prices weren't quite so high , but we went in a weekday so did not have to pay the admission fee, so it made high pumpkin prices seem ok. Will definitely go back next year! Convenient location right off 88 between downtown Chicago and the Quad Cities. read more

Definitely a great place to go to!! I recommend going Monday-Friday as it is a lot less busy and you do not have to pay to enter. It's only $5 those days to get a wrist band and do most of the things they have there. I think mon-thurs is 2-5:30 and fri is 12-5:30. read more

This place is great for kids and lots of activities to do. It did appear the apples were a little picked over but we didn't try to pick them. We came on a Saturday afternoon and though since it's outdoors, it did not feel packed, the lines were outrageous. My husband waited half an hour for the caramel apple slush but it was delicious! And I waited over an hour for the wine flight. We really liked some of the cider and wine, bought a few bottles. FYI you can check out at the side counter in the cider house. We planned on going to the bakery and store but glad she told me I could get the wine and cider there bc the store line would have been another 30-60 min wait... For that reason, we skipped the donuts which is one of the main reasons we came so that was a bummer but I didn't have it in me for another line. All in all, the cider house was worth it if you like taste testing. The prices were reasonable and the homemade cider is GREAT! Buuuut if you don't want to stand in line for everything, I would skip weekends. Long day of waiting. read more

Very pretty orchard to visit during apple picking season. Honey crisps were picked clean when we went a few days after they were in season, so we got plenty of gala apples which were just as delicious for pie. We went quite early before it was packed, and it was nice and quiet. They had 2 food trucks on premises for food options, and we had some local bbq that was pretty solid. The orchard has frozen apple cider which was refreshing on a hot day. We enjoyed their brew house, and picked up some wines that they make. I am a big fan of the cranberry apple wine! Nice crisp fruity taste, not too overwhelming, tastes very close to cranberry juice. And of course you need apple cider donuts, which theirs were very delicious and moist. read more

Jonamac Orchard - Rocking chair - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Malta, Illinois

I always get excited for apple picking weather, as I only moved up to chicago from South Florida 5 years ago so it's still a novelty for me. This past weekend was my second visit to Jonamac. My first visit was in October last year. I've been to a few other orchards and Jonamac is my fav! The vibe here is so fun and full of energy! All of the staff are so , so nice and helpful! They have so many family friendly activities, but we came for the apples, cider donuts, and hard cider! Hopefully next year I can get here before they run out of the honey crisp cider (honey crisp apples are my absolute favorite!). This year we tried the Bushfire and Traditional and I really enjoyed both. The bushfire has a nice ghost pepper kick as you swallow that keeps you coming back for more. I would say if you're sensitive to spicy - this might not be for you. They also have a flight so that could be a good way for you to test your comfort with the level of spice. In addition to ciders, they also have apple wine, beer, and slushees. Pro tip: make sure you are in the line to the right if you want to order by the cup or in the left line if you are ordering a flight. The orchard itself is so relaxing to walk around - I never new so many varieties of apples existed! I also recommend pre booking your time so that they are not sold out for the day when you get there. Can't wait to come back next year! read more

So right when you arrive, you get the stench of fried food in the air. If you have just came from breakfast, like we discussed, I could be very off putting. Walk up to the purchase tickets kiosk and you get your arm band, and a $16 gallon Ziploc bag that they want you to put apples in. $16 for 4 apples Absolute rip off. And this is too much of a commercial environment. I was expecting the same atmosphere like when we go get our Christmas tree every year, you park and go get your tree then go to the shop and then take your tree. This is just overkill. Food trucks all over the place, not to mention their own kiosks scattered throughout their "orchard." Save your money. Unfortunately there are some apple types that I would like to try but I'm not paying $16 for them. Cost me more in gas to get out her than I'm getting in apples. read more

One last round of apple picking before the season ends and weather gets crazy cold and while writing this review it dawned on me we stumbled on Jonamac a year or so ago but not for apple picking...totally forgot we had been here before. Since they had a good apple selection PLUS a Cider House I decided to reserve tix for Saturday & booked online a few weeks in advance since they were sold out. Price for admission is $5/adult and includes entry to all areas (stores, corn maze, kid's activities, petting zoo, pumpkin patch, etc). Price for U-Pick is $15 for 1/2 peck bag with a limit per group. Definitely pricier than the last orchard we went to. Right off the bat - we were disappointed with the apples. The orchard itself isn't ginormous but of the 4 apple varieties ready to pick, only 2 had an abundance of apples. The others were way picked over and pretty barren. Plus, some of the apples just didn't look good (bumps, bruises, etc) or taste good; sour. It was hard to fill our bags honestly. We went with mostly Pazzaz and some Ever Crisp and couldn't even locate Granny Smith...It was a chilly day and after awhile I was ready to call it quits on the picking. Trees were simply marked and you have to look for Flags on trees you can pick from which were easily found. Lots of apples on ground...You could find a better selection of prebagged in the store. The best part of Jonamac? Cider House. It was a mad house and I really wasn't in the mood to stand in line for 40 min, but I needed to get some redemption. They had a limit on capacity inside but I didn't see any social distancing enforced (other than labels on floor & some signs). Although masks were worn, people were all over and close to one another. Back to the Cider House - great selection of wines (apple, pumpkin spice, bubbly), wine slushies, Hard ciders and a few beers too - all made in house. We each had a flight which you can customize and enjoy at one of the many tables outside. We really liked the Red Barn Blush (apple and tart cranberry) and Apple Blossom sparkling wine and took home a few bottles. Bakery/store is stocked with your typical orchard fare; cider donuts, pies, jams, apple butter, some gifts...nothing out of the ordinary. Donuts had an oily after taste - maybe I got a bad batch but I've had better. Here's my take on Jonamac - the real reason you come here is for the Cider House and the majority of 20-somethings is your dead giveaway. I'd go to another orchard if you're here for apples. read more

What a cute place for everyone of all ages, whether you're taking your fam or going on a date, there's plenty to do. Apple picking is a fun interactive experience, but being able to drink and buy ciders made directly from the apples in the orchard are a unique experience all its own. read more

Jonamac Orchard was absolutely worth the hour+ drive out. Not just a you-pick farm, but they also have a store with knick-knacks and treats, a winery/cider house, and plenty of fun areas for families with kids. The whole appeal to choosing this apple orchard over the other, closer orchards was the Cider House. They make their own apple cider, hard cider, and wine! They currently offer three different ciders and maybe ten wines. We decided to do a tasting and sipped each other's glasses so we could get a good feel for what they had. A couple of wines really stood out to me and they even had a red wine blend that was surprisingly sweet for a red (it was a Zinfandel blend I think). We ended up buying two bottles of wine and a cider. After that we made our way to the store to purchase a bag to go apple picking. The trees are all pretty close to the ground so this wouldn't be a bad day with little ones either. Isles that could be picked were clearly marked with white flags which made it easy to know where to look versus having to go up and down isles hoping to find apples for the picking. We filled up a half peck bag (equivalent of a dry gallon... the more you know) and headed back to the store so I could also pick up some apple cinnamon donuts and a caramel apple. Obviously I was hungry. Also worth noting that both the caramel apple and donuts were delicious. Wait, and we bought a pack of cheddar beef sticks (that were also yum) to eat while we were picking apples... it's hard work, you work up an appetite. We went around 3pm on a Wednesday so it wasn't crazy busy, but everyone on staff was so sweet and helpful. One of the cashiers even went outside with us to take our picture on the giant rocking chair out front. I really want to come back again at the end of September when it cools off a little more, JO is a really nice farm with a lot to offer and a cool little getaway for the middle of the week. read more

They're doing their best to keep people safe during Covid-19 days. Purchase tickets in advance to save yourself time, and help them control crowd. Sunflowers were here! No spiced apple cider yet, but cider slushie and apple donuts are to be had! We also really enjoyed sitting on patio of Cider House with a wine tasting. $5 and you can do a flight if wine! We were here on a Friday at noon, and the crowds were minimal Tina and Kim were very friendly! Oh, I highly recommend Apple Blossom and Autumn Harvest wines read more

I just come here for the apples; they're priced about the same as my local grocery store, and the quality is considerably better. The staff is always friendly and helpful, even when the place is as busy as it was yesterday. Do yourself a favor, and get a donut or two. Their donuts are all apple cider donuts, some with cinnamon sugar, some without. One bite will ruin you for donut shop donuts! read more

My boyfriend and I popped over here yesterday for a nice fall day out. It was a weekday before 2pm so admission was free, but some activities were not available (i.e. apple cannon, big slides, etc.) We loved the delicious apple cider donuts available in the little store, and were excited to see that this orchard features a cider house with ciders and wines produced on-site. We each tried a cider/wine/slushie flight, and our favorites were the caramel wine slushie and the pumpkin wine. Good variety of apples available for picking, though many rows are still roped off. The available activities (small slides, basketball, tricycles) were fun and pretty uncrowded since it was a weekday. Overall, we enjoyed this orchard - just wished there had been more to do on a weekday. read more

honestly came here because everyone raves about this place but was quite disappointed with our experience. we had already purchased our tickets online and STILL had to wait in line to get in to the farm. it didn't seem very well organized as i've been to 2 other farms that had quick and fluid entry. i felt like this place was a lot smaller than the ones we've been to. they DO have tons of kid activities which were great and probably amazing coming on weekdays. everything had a wait. everything. and there's no staff around to ask questions. i definitely don't recommend coming here mid to late october ( as i'm sure all pumpkin patches get crazy around this time). the organization to me of the entire place really killed it for me and don't have plans to return read more

This is a cute little apple orchard around 45 minutes from Naperville. We came on a Monday in the early afternoon to avoid crowds. Parking was free, plentiful and conveniently located at the entrance. We paid for our u-pick bags at the "country store and bakery" located in the front. We got two, half peck bags at $15 each. The store/bakery contains some fall decor and of course lots of apple products and goodies. The orchard has a kiddie area with a couple of slides, little bikes, playhouses, hay bales and some tetherball. I suggest coming on a weekday since they charge a fee to enter the play area during the weekend (and honestly I don't think it's worth a fee). They also had a cider house with lots of seating inside and out, a little food stand, pumpkins for purchase, a jumping pillow and a mini barn where you can feed animals. The barn has goats, sheep, chickens, two cows and a kitty. Due to covid, the barn was limited to 15 people. We purchased two small cups of feed which was $2 each. Our LO had a good time feeding the animals, but I feel they could have given us more feed for the cost. The apple orchard is small. There was probably only a handful of rows you can pick from since the rest were blocked off. We didn't mind since the orchard is easily walkable with a little one. However, a lot of the trees were picked out and only had apples located near the top. We had to walk further to look for the easy to reach apples. It wasn't a problem for us. But I could see where it would be an issue during the weekend when there's more people and less reachable apples to choose from. We stopped by the bakery store on the way out. We purchased some caramel apples, a dozen apple cider donuts, some apple cider and popcorn which came out to $30. We munched on some of the goodies during our drive home. Everything tasted so good! Overall, it was a nice, laid back experience and our LO had fun. We were limited on time, so we were only at the orchard for about an hour and forty-five minutes. I wish we could have stayed longer to let our LO play and run around. I think that coming here during a weekday contributed to our pleasant experience, since we were able to avoid the crowds, there were less people picking the limited apples and we didn't have to pay the play area fee. We hope to visit the orchard again (on a weekday) before the season is over. read more

Leave the crazy crowds behind, take a drive out in the country where the roads are wide open, and the trees are beautiful in the fall. Head out to Jonamac Orchard and enjoy a relaxed day. Enjoyed the bakery and the Cider House. Nice to sit out in the sun and enjoy some great ciders. Really liked the warm pumpkin and harvest wines. Not as gone on the Brushfire Cider with Ghost Peppers. The ghost pepper heat was great, but there wasn't enough sweet apple taste to play off the heat. Apple cider donuts were good. Lots of stuff for the kids to do and lots of folks with dogs. They had a live band there as well, but kind of breezy and cool to sit and listen to. They closed the corn maze before we could wander through - they had to get ready for the haunted maze that evening. All in all, worth the drive! read more

Nice store and orchard with a building to sample wines. Tons of stuff for the kids to do with a lot of it free. Definitely worth the trip.

Definitely not the best place for fall fun. There are more slides than anything. Very few things for the kids to do.

I really like this place but will NOT be going back. They charge an admission fee which includes nothing! Inside, all the kids activities are $1-$8 each, 1/2 peck apple picking bags are $16! Which is about $1.60-$2.00 per apple. The tiny apple cider donuts are $1.50 each or $12.99 per dozen which i guess it's typical. If you can afford it go for it! Otherwise, im sure you can find better prices. After spending $210 for admission, kids activities, 4 tacos, 1 dz donuts, 2 half peck bags of apples, and half a gallon of apple cider....it's a hard pass for next year. Will check out other places. read more

Jonamac Orchard is a tradition with friends and our kids. What an operation. From bonfire areas (for rent) to Hay Rides, to a winery, to a pumpkin/apple orchard. There truly is something for everyone. Parents, a word to the wise; either pack a cooler or bring your wallet. There are donut stands, and food trucks, and pie everywhere you turn. The great thing is, once you have bought the bracelet; the kids can run jump and play. If the kids aren't ready to take a nap when You get back to the car, You did not stay long enough. Now, go get some fresh air. read more

This review is for the Orchard along with rental! I truly love everything about this place! My family and I travel about an hour and 15 min every year to share some of my favorite fall memories! This year we did something a little different, we rented out a space with a fire pit for my daughters 11th birthday! Oh man! Was it great! Although we had a pretty windy day, we had so much fun! Also, what a difference it was the amount of people NOT there. We usually don't go around opening weekend but we did this year! So worth it! Can I just brag for a second about the customer service here? The employees here were extremely helpful! They attended to our fire before it even had a chance to got out, ever. Not only that, my car wasn't working right and one of the employees was able to fix something my husband and I weren't able to fix in weeks! Thank God! Overall, fun family orchard worth every dime! read more

We visited here for the first time on Sunday (9/20). We purchased tickets in advance but stood in line longer than the people purchasing tickets that day (which they said online that they were sold out of). It seemed the person for the on-line tickets was helping everyone out and it took forever to get our wristbands. The orchard itself was disappointing. The people from Saturday picked an entire variety of apple so the ones that were left weren't worth the $15 price tag for a bag of apples. The kids area was fun, my kids enjoyed it and it wore them out. The farm animals were a highlight for my kids, but again, $$$. We had a great fall day, they had sanitizer around but masks were lacking, especially in the kids area by both adults and children. read more

This is our favorite orchard. There is so much to do. I feel like they are doing a really great job during these pandemic days of keeping everyone safe. Although, I'm definitely looking forward to non-pandemic orchard days so I do a wine/cider tasting and then the kids can climb on all of the playground and bouncy pillow areas. read more

I've gone to Kuiper's a few times, but I realized just how expensive it is and wanted to look at other orchards. Here admission was just $5 and unlike Kuiper's has a proper orchard with a huge selection in pumpkins. Not as crowded and being far far cheaper I'll definitely go here instead in the future read more

Such a great spot for a fall date or a family outing! After visiting Kuiper's and being incredibly disappointed by the expensive admission, tiny pumpkins, lack of things to do for adults, and several other things, I gave Jonamac Orchard a shot this year and loved it! The admission here is only $7 per person and includes access to everything but a few activities which require "apple tokens" (only a few dollars). There's tons to do for both kids and adults - apple picking, a pumpkin patch, cute pumpkin displays for photo ops, food/snack booths, jumping pads and train rides for kids, a petting zoo, apple cannons, wagon rides, corn maze, a general store and a cider house! My boyfriend and I came on a Saturday afternoon to get some pumpkins and visit the cider house. The line to get into the cider house was super long so we ending up doing other things (and unfortunately didn't make it back over there before closing). We walked around aimlessly for a while looking for the pumpkin patch until we finally asked an employee who pointed us in the right direction. We got on the wagon ride which took us around the apple orchard and over to the pumpkin patch (compared to Kuipers "hay ride" which merely went in a small circle around an area of grass). The pumpkin patch was huge and had tons of different pumpkins - some pretty big ones too. The pricing was 1 pumpkin for $10 or 3 for $20. We saw people with carts hauling their pumpkins but we couldn't figure out where they got the carts from. We ended up with 1 big pumpkin and 2 small ones since that was all we could carry back and then found out the carts were all the way at the entrance to the entire Orchard. You had to get one there and walk it down to the pumpkin patch, which we weren't made aware of when we came in. I wish there would have been maps or more signage that pointed to where things were at. While I was disappointed we didn't get to do everything we wanted (which was mainly our faults since we didn't go earlier in the day), I surprisingly still had a great time here and will definitely be back since the admission is cheap! I think the experience here is a lot more well rounded for different age groups and much more affordable. read more

Overall, we had a pretty fun time and it kept us busy for 5-6 hours. Coming here was a back up plan, as we were supposed to go to Wisconsin and stay overnight, but we got rained out. I am not a huge fan of Kuipers, and a quick search lead us here. The kids area is super cute and filled with activities. Our almost two year old had a blast at all the areas. It was awesome in helping to tire her out, so that we could do a tasting at the cider house. We were able to do a quick tasting at the cider house, which was fun. It was very crowded though. There must be some other way to set it up so everyone wouldn't be standing in one place? My only disappointment was with the orchard itself. I am spoiled by having visited some neat orchards in Wisconsin. This one seemed so small to me. We were done walking within about 15 minutes as there were only 3 types you could pick from. There was only 1 apple of the three types that I found enjoyable. It was 15 for a 1/2 peck. We did bring a lunch from home and found a nice shaded area that was semi private to eat our food, which was nice. read more

We went on a Saturday morning and drove all the way from Chicago. Took us around 1hr and 30min. We started a little on the North near the Montrose brownline. Apple Picking- Apple were really fresh and ripe. Pazazz, Fuji, and Braeburns were in season at the time. Apple picking prices 1 peck = approx. 26 apples = $26 1/2 peck = approx. 13 apples = $13 Shop Bakery- We went to the shop/bakery first which is the red barn on the right of the Cider house. Got a little lost trying to find it since the entrance is on the other side. Got apple cider donuts and hot cider. When we went back after all the activities we got honey, more donuts, apple cider, apple butter, and raspberry select preserves. Cider House- Go there earlier in the morning. It gets more full throughout the day. Note to the owners: Have the bartenders serve the hard cider flights at separate tables. Not at the bar. A family of 5 would take up 1/4 of the bar space. So you could only have 4 groups testing out the drinks at once. If you don't have time to test out the ciders, buy some hard cider and apple wine anyways. Live a little ;). Corn Maze- It has a couple parts/sections that you complete separately. Went through the corn maze which was pleasantly large enough to get lost in every now and then. We actually went in without a map, which made it more fun. In the maze you will see some walls have sections trampled down. Resist the urge to go through those "false paths" and you'll have more fun :). read more

This is our choice for a pumpkin patch. I find the prices reasonable and my child has always had a blast. If you are showing up for apples in October they usually seem to be on the down swing. Lots of kids activities! My daughter loved the bounce pillow, playground, and petting zoo. Lots of things for kids to do and even while being crowded, it didn't feel overly so. A bunch of food trucks were there with good selections. It was chilly and I thought $2 for a good size hot chocolate was very fair. The cider house which had tastings of ciders and wines was reasonable and really a great option for adults. Overall, the supposed "pumpkin patches" in the burbs just can't hold a candle to a rural working orchard. Pumpkins were 3 for $20 no matter how big of pumpkins you pick. My daughter took a shine to a very small pumpkin that would have been a fourth and they gave it to her for free. In the shop they sold those same small pumpkins for $1 so it was nice they just gave it to her and made her day. read more
