They should not hold the word Humane in their title! I would not work with them nor would I give any donations to them. I'd find another animal shelter or habitat to assist. These people are all out for themselves and not the animals. They should be ashamed!

It's all listed online and very user-friendly. We showed up around 1130 and wandered around. Picked apples at noon. Then had some live music at one. Very well planned and I'm proud of the way we did it. If you're driving from Asheville, old fort is a great stopping point. We got cinnamon rolls on the way there and Hillman on the way back. It did look like this Orchard had some very affordable barbecue on site. Tons of snacks in the gift shop too. The parking lot was pretty big and they have extra parking. The staff was super kind. I love that it's a nonprofit and there's tons of educational pieces. You will find a bunch of maps and other displays. They have a bee and caterpillar to stay for kids and adults alike. The gift shop. Also both a lot of local crafts like candles, ciders, and honey. No drinking on site. The apple picking is around back. You can get a little bag or two sizes of a basket. We opted for the bag because there is no reason for us to keep a basket around. For eight dollars it's all very affordable. It got us about 12 big apples. The trees are well marked. For picking. It is lots of space for wandering. Definitely not in the shade so it's pretty hot. For me, I really like the extra things that this place had. Cornhole, checkers, Jenga... They usually have bands on the weekend too.

Gorgeous views but not much else since they had no apples when we visited…read more Was told a late season hard freeze killed 90% of the apple crop and they had already sold what apples they did have. They should have updated the website to reflect this. All of the trails were closed with the exception the short butterfly trail. Word of warning-Don't come here hungry! You and your wallet will regret it! The onsite restaurant The Apple Core had prices that were beyond outrageous! Three jumbo hot dogs with sides and 3 bottles of water, tax and tip was $50!! Yes, you read that right $50!! For damn hot dogs!! They also have an over priced tourist gift shop. My wife bought 4 small stickers, a small sew on patch and 5 honey sticks and with tax and a small tip it came to $28. So with the way overpriced lunch, some small souvenirs and one small scoop of ice cream, we spent $85 that day which was at least twice as much as it we should have paid. My wife and I agreed for a 4 hour round trip drive and the amount of money we spent it wasn't worth it and we will not be returning!
