We discovered Wright's Farm by accident, our hotel concierge recommended we stop by the local farm stand. Once we pull in, from the outside it seems like a typical farm stand. Walking inside, it's a different experience at Wright's Farm. This visit, I want to buy a bottle of local wine and some local cheese then go back to the hotel. I see there is a very nice selection of Hudson Valley and regional wines. I also buy a nice local, spreadable cheese along with some crackers. I noticed towards the back, I see a wall of homemade jams. And they're all packaged in these cute mason jars! Strawberry Jelly is a must but then we went a little nutzo with a few more jam flavors as well as homemade apple sauces, fresh cheeses and pickles! Sunday, its check out time and we're heading back to Long Island after breakfast. My wife said we need to go shopping for dinner today. I said, Let's go back to Wright's Farm and pick up dinner? And this was the highlight of our trip. In the cold cases, I see homemade ravioli, one of the stuffings was corn? I had plans to stop in The Bronx and get a few boxes of Raviolis. I gambled and said lets try their corn ravioli. O.M.G. This ravioli was fantastic! My wife made it with fresh sage from our herb garden. It was a little pricey but it was better than anything I had this year. For the week, we bought a large ham steak and a ham hock for pea soup. I saw something interesting, a black futsu squash? I told my wife, lets buy one and take a chance. Amazing! My wife cooked this squash and it came out deelish. Dessert? My sons inhaled the apple cider doughnuts we bought home for them. Wright's Farm, it was a pleasant surprise to discover your local farmstand. read more

This is the best place for apple picking in NY, hands down. An on-site farm stand, brewery and restraint, along with an orchard that spans for hundreds of acres makes this a premier spot to spend an autumn afternoon. Add on the fact they have several Hip-Camp spots for camping overnight, and a very large field for Harvest Host members to park overnight makes this one of our top destinations this time of year. Being only about 2 1/2 hours drive from Long Island it is well worth the pilgrimage to this incredible family run farm! read more

My family has been coming to Wrights Farm every year for apple picking for about 15 years now. Wrights is everything where we get fresh warm Apple Cider donuts in the shop and park our car and have a nice family picnic while a few of us go off to pick apples. It's something I look forward to every single year as it's the epitome of spending quality time with the family. This year we did come a little late on the first week of October but the weather decided to take a dip back to summer. I quickly realized that apple picking was not fun in 80 degree weather lol . We took a break and resumed. I'll definitely be back next year with food and blankets for our picnic:-) read more

Today i went here apple picking with my dog. Pro: your dog is allowed Cons: it is a disorganized mess, their lack of apple variety sucks, barely any apple flavor in their apple cider donuts. Overall: won't be going back to. read more

Has a great market with hot food options, pricey though in certain areas such as homemade sausage but worth it. Housemade Hot dogs hit the spot. Can't wait to try their pies. read more

I visited this Farmer's Market while on a vineyard tour. I was very excited to go because I've been to other farmer's markets on Long Island and they were great. I was disappointed with this place because they didn't have nice bouquets of flowers and they also ran out of apple cider donuts. There wasn't much other items that I was interested in. The customer service was nice but I just didn't get what I expected. read more

Great stop! we came in the morning to stop before heading back to nyc. We got free coffee while shopping and then got some apple cider donuts for breakfast which were fresh out of the oven and sooo good. We picked out so many fresh goodies like vegetables, fruits, meats, cheeses, raviolis, and baked goods. The staff was so friendly! We want to come back and try the fudge eventually, that looked so delicious. Such a cute farm store with great produce and extras! read more

Great experience picking apples at Wright's Farm today. First, this place is HUGE ! We were here mid-week during September, we felt like we had the whole orchard to ourselves. But I imagine that even during "Prime Time" apple season on the weekends, there still would be plenty of elbow room for everyone. It's also a gorgeous place -- beautiful scenic views, it was a real treat to just wander around the farm for hours. Nice selection of apples too, my favorite was the Honey Crisp. Back at the Country store, we purchased a blueberry pie, a dozen fresh eggs, tomatoes, and jars of jam and salsa. The owners & staff are very friendly, and we look forward to a return visit to Wright's Farm when we are in the area again. An easy 5 Star review. read more

This is a great little roadside market and apple orchard. We found it through Harvest Hosts and spent a great night camping on site. It was so nice the next morning to be able to walk down to the market for some fresh coffee and Apple Cider Donuts. The have a great selection of fresh produce and meats available for purchase. We were there just before Halloween so they had lots of pumpkins available too. They had boxes of apple wood for purchase for those of us who like to smoke meat. read more

Stopped here on our way to Saratoga and so glad we did! Quaint shop with plentiful homegrown and homemade goods such as apples, vegetables and jams. We couldn't resist the cider donuts, which are $1.50 each or 6 for $6.99. They were incredible and some of the best we've had. They also have a massive orchard. Unfortunately we didn't have time to pick apples but there were many trees and varieties. Highly recommend! read more

Wright's Farm, as a family-owned establishment, offers an excellent experience compared to other farms I've visited. I consistently savor their delicious food. What's great is that it's incredibly dog-friendly, with dogs allowed to roam freely. Their farm has abundance of apples for picking, and their on-site store offers a variety of items. I bought some raw honey, and the service was fast, while the atmosphere was peaceful. For apple picking, each person is required to purchase a bagI savored their chili celery soup, mac and cheese, and apple cider donuts. For soup, my favorite was the soup that included kale as an ingredient, but unfortunately, they didn't have it available this time. I have been here for 8 years and it has been consistently a good experience. I highly suggest this farm. read more

Favorite pet friendly apple picking farm. Dogs should be on leash but it was large enough without huge crowds for trained dogs to run happily freely. Not crowded and people are friendly. The farm store items itself are quite pricy but that's the cost of business? It's nice they have local cider and craft beer on site. read more

Perfect little farm store to pick up locally grown Fruits, Veggies , Hand made Pies, Cookies and their delicious Cider Donuts. They also have hot lunch options with Chilli & Soup. You will have to order pick & go as there is no place to sit & eat inside. It's a bit tight inside but well organized . They have a variety of locally made relish , jam & preserves on sale . They do have Cheese & mustard choices which are interesting. We went in October so found loads of pumpkins stacked outside giving it the classic Fall Vibe. A cute little store to stop & shop while driving in that countryside . read more

This year 2023 it has rained every weekend preventing us from going on our weekends off. We ended up going on a shared Tuesday off in October around 1 pm with our two pups. One of the last remaining orchards allowing pets. They have a market in the front with a good selection of pickled, fresh, and freshly processed products. Apple cider donuts, butters, and jams. Staff were helpful. Pointed us in the direction we needed to go. When we parked there was one other couple in the orchard. The orchard itself was vast and had a good selection of apples. It was still early in the season and with the weekends being not busy the trees were full of apples. Some have complained about the price but you're paying for an experience and people need to make their living. Only thing I hope they manage a little better is the grass length in the aisles to pick apples. The grass was a little too high for our liking. We had a wonderful time and will definitely have this farm on our return business list. read more

We drove here from NYC - 3 friends each with a dog of a variety of sizes. We arrived super early and were welcomed by the amazing family that has owned the farm for generations. We got coffee and donuts and used the bathroom and then headed to the orchard. We had the orchard to ourselves for a few hours and our dogs had a blast running around and chasing woodchucks. The owner's son came by and was both helpful and incredibly welcoming. The apples were delicious and the walking trails were beautiful. The advice we followed, to climb every hill, led to us getting the most beautiful scenery and little charming set ups like a garden and a swing. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice day trip from NYC with your dog. Just be sure to pack water- all that adventuring is thirsty business! read more

We were hopeful for a nice Saturday of apple picking but this farm was so chaotic and expensive. We parked our cars and I walked into the shop to buy our bags for apple picking, in the time it took me to walk there and back a few times because I needed MORE money, a woman was yelling at our family that we couldn't park in that area. Where would you like us to park? I had to pay before we went apple picking!!! It is also very expensive. We took our family of 11 people and it cost $188.00. Our two granddaughters were "free" because of their age but the farm was too cheap to give them a bag so we gave them ours. But upon asking for a bag for them, the cashier said "if you want to pay for them, they can have a bag." No thank you!! Are you kidding, I already paid enough for apple picking!!!! Now we were ready to apple pick, yes!! Unfortunately, no signs or a rare sign by the rows of apples so we had no idea what we were picking. Not a huge selection either but seemed to be the same apples just many rows of them. Thank goodness our granddaughters had fun though!! Plus, the woman who initially was yelling at us escorted us to the orchards because the cashier said we only had one car, and we actually had four cars so she thought there might be an issue. I personally think there would have been because the girl where you pass by to show your ticket to get to the apple picking parking lot could not wrap her head around the fact we had four cars even with the worker telling her. They also check your trunk for stealing so be aware of that!! We will not be going back for apple picking again......EVER!! Oh, Tantillo's Farm how we miss you!! You were always amazing!! read more

We had an awesome time picking apples at Wright's on a Sunday afternoon! You have to buy bags first from the farm store (everybody needs to buy a bag to enter the orchard). When we went in on a September Sunday afternoon, it was empty and couldn't find any cashiers to buy bags and cider, which was weird... After a bit somebody helped us out and then we drove into the orchard. We were only there for a bit, but a lot of people brought grills and looked set up for a good day there! They do allow puppy dogs in the store and orchard, so bring them along! I was also happy to see they had plenty of honey crisp apples in the pick your own orchard. There were a good amount of people there but the orchard is huge so lots of room to spread out. Get the cider donuts- they were awesome. read more

After countless hours of research, I have finally selected this farm, hoping that I have hit the jackpot amid a long list of apple picking farms. Happy to say, my expectations were well met. How it works: you park by the store front. Go inside and choose and pay for a bag of apples. The required adult medium bag is $12. We purchased two large bags $24 each, because we wanted to go big and bring tons of apples to our families. With the bags and a receipt, return to your car and drive up the hill to present your receipt at the gate to enter the orchard. Park there, walk up, and enjoy the land all to yourself. The first Saturday of October, the orchard was lush with apples. We tasted and picked around five different apple types. The orchards are very spacious and beautiful. Tons of acres for you to roam around and enjoy. Great for photos and picnics. There are even some picnic tables set up for you to enjoy your lunch! Definitely on the bigger orchards that I've ever been too. They also had different fruit there--peaches, pears, and raspberries, so imagine myself returning to taste those when they are in season. The only small grievance I have is that the apple trees were not marked, so we had no clue what apples we were picking. Different apple types were planted intermixed, so there were no rows of distinctive sort of apples. We would've liked to know what sorts we were enjoying. We were the last to leave the orchard, past 6pm, when the sun has begun its descent. The store was still open, so we went inside for some more splurging. Dog friendly farm--tons of pooches running wild in the orchard. The store is huge. We spent over $100 there. Definitely need to exercise some self-control, as everything there looks incredible. Tons of freshly baked goodies, pies, cookies, candy apples, sweets, jams, jellies, and products. Soooo much to choose from--your eyes will start to hurt from that Autumn cornucopia of delicacies. Fresh produce like tomatoes, squash, pumpkins, and cage free eggs are available. Huge selection of jack o lantern pumpkins for $.59 per lb. We got three and they came to $16, which isn't bad. People are buying crazy amount of stuff here, stopping by the store even when the sun has set. The profit from the store is what keeps this farm in business. Get apple cider doughnuts. They aren't cheap, $6 for 6, but worth a try. They bake them every hour, so get a warm batch--the warm doughnut with a hot beverage on a chilly day is an incomparable experience. The apple cider was unbearably sweet for me. We also got the homemade fudge, which looked delectable on display. We got 4 pieces (plus two 'free') for $13. great variety of flavors that you can taste before purchase. However, beware how sweet the fudge is. I am a sugar addict, but that fudge was too sweet even for me. Great flavors and consistency, but way too sweet to enjoy more than a bite per sitting. Would love to return! read more

Those fresh Apple cider donuts that they make are the best I've ever had in my life absolutely delicious

We had such a happy Saturday at this dog-welcoming, stunning farm that is not crowded, overflowing with apples, and has delicious homemade pies, pumpkins and donuts. None of the nuisance, all of the fun. What more could you want? My friends and I packed up the car with our dogs and they pranced across the orchard so happy, eating bites of apple and rolling in the grass. This is the best of the best. Our new tradition. 5 Stars!!!!!! read more

COVID-19 era review: Adorable but closed red barn Gardiner Brewery was our original destination, but we could still buy local wine, beer, and whisky at Wright's Farm Stand. More country store than stand, Wright's is adorable. While we were at it, we couldn't pass up the strawberries and cherries, maple sausage, and a cherry pie (standard and half sizes, yes please...was that a hand-drawn box?). We also let our little one pick a cute, collared jar of jam. There were perennials and fig trees for sale our front, and plenty of firewood bundles for local camping. Walking the orchards was a peaceful ending to our visit. For local goods and Shawangunk scenery, we can't wait to come back. I bet it's gorgeous in autumn... read more

One of the best apple picking farms we've been to! It's HUGE! There are so many apple trees, and just a ton of space for all sorts of activities. We came as a group to celebrate a few of a friend's birthday, and found it really easy to find a picnic spot. There are picnic tables scattered around, but there were also many parties setting up tents, grills, etc. and just having a great time at the farm. There were also many trails you could stroll around and it was just incredibly dog friendly. Our pup was allowed in the store/market and anywhere on the premises. With so much running room we let him off leash and played some fetch while everyone was picnicking (he's very well trained - I do not recommend letting your dog off leash if they do not stay by your side or have good recall). We will definitely come back to this farm! There are so many activities you could do here and make a relaxing day out of it :) It's $15 per person which comes with a bag for apple picking. We thought the apples were okay, they weren't overly sweet but it might have been early in the season read more

We came here from Baltimore after trekking to New Hampshire to see the last bits of fall falling off trees. Unlike many other places, they allow dogs for free! We opted to go apple picking which was $12 per adult that enters the orchard. They check your car when you enter and leave so don't try no funny business smuggling more apples than your bag can bear. They open till 6pm but last call to buy a ticket to go in is at 4:30pm. Parking lot is to the right when you enter. Plenty of apples left to pick and we got so many! There were plenty of options though we almost missed the empire apples that was located behind the parking lot. Onto the food store... the donuts which were 6 for 5.99 was so good. Get them when they are warm and toasty. The lines were ridiculously long when we went. Be prepared to wait. You can grab food upstairs (chili, hot dogs, pulled pork sandwich, coffee) while you browse. The one con - we asked for an Apple crumb pie ($7) that they just brought out fresh. They put a small label in the box (small piece of paper with the pie ingredients). Outside the box was also colorfully decorated noting Grandmas Apple crumb pie. I literally waited the whole drive (5+hours) until we got home to reheat this baby to eat it (way to go delayed gratification!) BUT to my dismay it was BLUEBERRY pie. Thank god none of us were allergic to blueberries. Wish they would be more careful how they label and put away pies, and sad we won't ever get to try grandmas apple pie. If you like blueberries though (which isn't my favorite fruit), this pie was decent. read more

Top notch produce.. delicious pies. Great local spot for produce. They have a bit of everything.

My family and I decided to go Apple picking on this holiday that we have off. We decided to try this place because of how the weather turn out and we really wanted to just pick apples and not get distracted by all the other festivities that some farms and orchard have. From the reviews we read this turned out to be the perfect place. Yes it was a long ride but to me and the children it was worth it. Coming from The Bronx it was an hour and a 1/2 ride depending on what route you take to drive up here, so maybe about 2hrs. So now let's get to the fun! When you 1st arrive you have to stop at the market. They have load and loads of pumpkins out front, then you get inside and you see apple pies, pumpkin pies, fresh made apple cider donuts,(those were a hit with the fam.), fruits and fruit jams, cookies and honey in jars. I mean this market has a lot to offer. The only reason I didnt go for broke is because they didnt have an atm. I guess that was a blessing in disguise for me. As you walk further into the market you walk up a short flight of stairs, and then they have this food area where you can purchase all types of food to eat and then you walk up to the register in the back and that's when you purchase the bags for Apple picking. In order to get into the orchard you have to drive to it with your car, and everyone with you has to have buy a bag, other wise you wont get in. They do check your receipt going in and they check your car going out making sure that you didn't take any extra apples that your bags cant fill. Once your in the orchard, you park your car and you go in! Apples for days. They have a forest full of apples. You could eat on the spot, (I wouldnt, cause I like to make sure I wash it first), you can bring your own food, your pets, your family, whatever, this was a blissful place to visit. I saw people have picnics, bbqs, I even saw someone bring a tent. I mean I thought I was camping in apple tree heaven. I loved the environment and location here, and so did my children. My husband was happy he got to stay in the car and listen to his music. This place is a hit and very budget freindly. F.Y.I. there is no wi-fi anywhere, so if you want some real quality time without any interruption this is the place to go to. We will make another visit next season. I will make sure I have alot more cash, and maybe bring some more friends along. read more

We stopped here to look at the plants and pick up a few things from their farmstand. What a great place! They've got walls of homemade jams, preserves, chutneys, etc. I picked up a Cherry Chipotle Jam that I can't wait to try. We got a couple of apple cider donuts - our first of the season - and they were really good. My partner picked up a pretty plant. We'll definitely come back for their fruits and veggies. Tomatoes looked amazing (too bad I already bought some elsewhere - these looked better!). read more

Really cute farmer's stand. With homemade pies, delicious cider donuts for $6 half a dozen and even cheese, sausages and pesto. There is a variety in food available too. We saw chicken been grilled outside but not sure it was being sold or for the staff. My disgruntled feelings are towards the apple picking part of the farm because we could not walk - a car was a must. And then the sign even said 'the car could be searched.' Weird. It was a group of us and not everyone wanted to buy a bag of apples because we were there more for the experience. $12 was a dealbreaker when a bag of apples in the store was just $10. I think I'd like this farm more if you just paid for what you picked- instead of being charged for just entering. But it's Fall and this is a fall activity! read more

The farm stand is wonderful for Gardiner. There are so many varieties of fruit, flowers, ciders, donuts, pies, jams & home baked goodies.

We just went to pick up plant starters. Wow, such a selection! From all the herbs, to serrano peppers- great place to go, to select plants for the garden. The farm stand has an impressive selection of local goods too. I got some harney and sons tea, and some beer to try out- the farm has actually been brewing beer for 2 years now. It was quite refreshing, and tasty. read more

This farm is so welcoming to all and dogs. They have awesome varieties of apple for you to explore and pick. $20 for adult entry including parking/picnicking/tailgating and a bag that carries 10 lbs apples.

THis was the worst experience went there in October. There were no apples they took our money we have now been fighting this for months don't understand why the owners just don't refund us our $80 and call it a day.

We were there on October 23rd hoping for a nice few hours picking apples. We were 4 people and paid $40 each for 2 large bags. We drove up the the parking area and walked up to the tree line. No apples within reach, some were at the very top but we were not provided pickers...we walked and walked and could not find apples within reach unless they were rotting on the ground. All understandable I guess. We went back to the farm stand and asked if we can just fill the bags from the pallets of apples they had there...the clerk said she needed to call the owner. Her answer was no, then we asked for our $80 back, NO. Then we asked for a store credit...NO. Then we asked for $40 store credit, NO. We felt totally cheated, spent $80 for 2 empty plastic bags. read more

Bought a groupon and decided to visit the farm on a Sunday afternoon. When you reach the place you first have to go inside the farmers market to get your bag and they'll give you pass which you have to show going in and coming out from the orchards. The market is pretty big and has a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, jams and honey... They also serve hot food and I recommend the chili. Also don't forget the apple cider donuts, it's worth a trip by itself. Once you drive into the orchard fields there's plenty of space to park.. There are so many varieties of apple to choose from and they are marked... You'll also find the staff driving around, flag them down and they'll tell you where to look if you are looking for a particular kind. It was a fun Sunday afternoon and I'll definitely be coming back. read more

Tourist trap. Locals know better. This place is ridiculously expensive. Very nice and orderly on the inside but there are many other farm markets around that are more affordable. I realize they need to make their money during their busy season but their prices are over the top and keep me from going there. Thankfully we have no shortage of farm markets in the Hudson Valley. read more

This business is outrageously over priced for what they offer. Other similar local business have better quality for far better prices.

Wrights is the best farm in the area... why do I say this? During the past Scamdemic we watched location after location close... this place stayed open. The family works there together... the plants are beautiful... the beer garden is great.... this is an American family hustling to make it in the ever angry environment of upstate NY. The entire town should pay for this farm to get a solar panel grid going. I know a lot of these farmers are in crisis due to the price of oil, gas and electric, PS there is some "environmental self proclaimed Gardiner board official" who has not even gone to the local farms and worked out a free way for them to stay in business and get solar on full rebates... It is the least the Democrats up here can do...... it really is a shame. All talk and NO action...... I like all the workers and get my apples here every year. read more
