There were lots of ripe apples of several varieties for us to pick and we filled our basket quickly. Prices for U pick were very reasonable and much less than some other orchards in the area. We stopped to look at the beautiful zinnias and watch the butterflies and bees enjoy them as well. We also bought jam and apple butter and baked goods in the market to bring home for later. I enjoyed a Fuji apple that I had just picked and it was awesome. There is lots for kids and families to do, especially on the weekends. We would definitely return!

I imagine they are probably fed up dealing with crotchety self righteous old people (who seem like the largest population of patrons). They had some really awesome bakery items and we got a half gallon of cider for a really great price. The donuts are absolutely delicious and I highly recommend getting some - I enjoyed the fritter as well, but preferred the donuts. My boyfriend also tried the chocolate chip, peanut butter, and macadamia cookies and thought all of them were great, but especially loved the peanut butter one. Honestly, they have some great prices for it being all homemade, made from scratch. Lots of pie options and even jarred jams and butters as well- easy parking and accessible Like a mini farmers market in one spot. I recommend a visit and get some apple cider!!

The apples in the bins at the market are about half price the apples in the orchard. And you get a larger selection from the market. $2.50 for a bottle of water. You guys can do better than that. It's a necessity on the farm and in that sun. Try not to gouge the client too much for it. The BBQ joint needs some help.

The little couple who own Buffalo Orchard are too sweet. They have a free hayride that takes you to pumpkin patch, rows upon rows of apples and a huge sunflower field.

Plenty of orchard rows to walk with several types of apples to choose from. Apple bags are purchased before entering the orchard but you can also finish filling it in the store if you want to. There's even a raised platform to take pictures. Sky Top has lots to do outside of the orchard. There's an apple cannon, hay rides, bee train and playground. There were more food options than I expected. They offered pizzas, large pretzels, and hot dog combos. And there are so many treats! Fudge, ice cream, kettle corn, different types of dipped apples, and donuts. Everything I tried was yummy. Definitely a fun family day!

You can pick your own apples or select already-picked apples if you want more varieties to select from. They have some already bagged or you can bag your own. I love that they offer apple slices of all the current varieties so you can figure out your favorites. I was surprised I didn't like the sweetest apples but liked the more tart ones. Besides apples, they have pumpkins. The sunflowers were at the end of their life when I was there, but I was glad I got to see them. The gift shop sells cider and other items, and the bakery has pies, cookies, donuts, slushies, and other goodies. Customer service is friendly, and on the weekends, they have other activities to do. But you can walk to the water and enjoy the views.
