Our Apples

Apple picking is available during the fall and begins the first weekend of September. We have many varieties of apples for you to pick, each with a different time of the season when they are ready to be picked. Please call 905.640.5357 to hear which apples we are picking that day. The apple picking season runs right into pumpkin season.
