Group Visits

Throughout the apple season we often have school groups tour the orchard.  

 

During the apple season, we encourage school groups to come and visit our orchard. You may bring your own  picnic at no extra cost to enjoy along the Swatara Creek or near the orchard.  

Groups are welcome to call to schedule a tour.  We charge $7 per student, adults (except teachers) and siblings ,aged 3 and above, for approximately an hour tour. During a tour, students learn about different apple and pumpkin varieties and  how to pick and wash them. We also add a nature tour. They will take back 2 apples and a small pumpkin each. Curious eyes may follow you as our  friendly beef cows love your attention. Stay back from the fence, as it is electric to keep the cows in!

Please contact us by telephone (cell 717.418.3480, cell 717.222.1399 or 717.865.3997) to schedule a group visit! "Pick  your own" will be available on Fridays,& Saturdays all day and Sunday (afternoons only), and by appointment on other  weekdays. Please call in advance to schedule your time. 

Use of the grounds for professional photography is permitted by appointment (Pam-- 717-222-1399) for a small fee of $25.00. Fee is due when you arrive.
