Cindy,
Thanks for the clarification. I corrected it.

Our family visited Arrowhead Orchard in Paris, Ohio over the weekend. The admission is $5.00 for everyone over the age of 2. For the price of admission you get a hay ride, a childrens tractor/train ride, tricycles, corn maze, greenbean maze, hay bale climbing, playground, etc… They have pick your own apples, with the cost varying depending on the # of apples you pick. They have a store where you can purchase cider, apples, jellies, apple butter/pumpkin butter etc. This is definitely worth a trip for those living in Stark County and the surrounding areas. It was a fun time for everyone!
Hello,
Do you know of any apple orchards etc that are non-gmo/organic in northeast Ohio?
Thanks!
I would love to know the same! Thank you
Monroe’s Orchard in Hiram. Great family, great fall festival for the kids and awesome fun!
Kuner’s Apple Farms: NOT A FRIENDLY PLACE!!! There is this apple farm that I’ve been to a few times on South Arlington Rd. in Green. Last year the owner treated my rudely, but I just chalked it up to late menopause or something. I decided to go apple picking with all the kids today on my way home from a friend’s house quite close to there. Thought it would be fun and convenient. It was neither. After having to wait a long time before they came out to direct me to where to go, we had a fun time sampling and picking apples. BUT, when it came time to pay, I went to hand her my debit card, she glared at me like she had caught me red-handed stealing apples! I was confused until she opened her mouth, then I went into a state of shock. She raked my over the coals for DARING to come to her orchard without being prepared to pay. They only accepted cash or check and I was ignorant to assume that a small business would accept other forms of payment. I anxiously fiddled through my wallet and came up with $8 and change (and wondered if she had never heard of The Square or if she even owned a smart phone) and asked if I could at least buy the equivalent amount in apples. I was in disbelief that she could look any angrier with me…but apparently she had no trouble with that. “Of course not!! You picked them…you HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM, and you can’t leave until you do!!” “But how?” I stammered. Well there was this ATM almost 10 minutes away that she told me drive to and she would most begrudgingly hold my apples for me to get cash out. I just shook my head with her in disbelief. “You want me to drive 20 min. to get cash out?” Without giving me another moment’s consideration she half yelled/growled at the poor girl that worked for her, “Get those apples out of her car. If she’s not willing to pay, I don’t want to do business with the likes of her!” But I am willing I thought, as I choked back tears, but I just have $8 and she won’t even let me buy $8 worth.The confusion that came over my children’s faces as I was stripped of my apples and dignity was awful. “But why mommy? why wouldn’t the mean lady let us buy the apples that we work so hard to pick?” “I’m so sorry”, I choked as my body shook with sobs, “I don’t know”. Some people are just nasty, but she picked the wrong girl to be nasty to. I guess some people wouldn’t have even flinched and just laughed at the mean ol’ lady. I just can’t stand up under nasty. I felt so violated and diminished, I fought back sobs the whole drive home
Laurel,
Picking apples is such a wonderful fall activity and I’m so sorry you had a bad experience. We’ve never been to Kuner’s but know others that have and go back each year.
We have been to Dunlap’s Orchard (right next to Kruner’s) numerous times. So if you do decide to go again you should try there. I’m not sure if they take credit/debit cards so I’m bring cash just to be safe.
I’ll be sure to include a note at the top of this article encouraging people to bring cash as well. I’m sure some of the farms take credit/debit, but if not at least the note will help others remember.
Again, I know I can’t change what happened, but I am sorry that you had a bad experience.
Danielle
Thank you for posting this. I was considering going to this farm with my son. Not now! Not with that attitude!
While i do believe the lady should have been nicer, it is common sense to bring cash to any farmers market/pyo place. These farmers work hard to raise these plants and expect people to follow common practices. Hope your next PYO experience is better and always remember to bring cash! 🙂
Bauman Orachard in Rittman is fantastic! http://www.baumanorchards.com. Their fall festival is great for kids, and very easy on the wallet. .50 all day hay rides, $1 cider and hot dog combo meal, and best of all great family time for apple picking! Live music, kettle corn, ect. Check it out!
Thank you for sharing. Took my son last weekend after I read your comment. We had so much fun and it was easy on the wallet.
Horseshoe orchard off masillon rd just south of akron. They have hard to find old time varieties.
Thanks for the link to my Heavenly Hill Farm post!
We actually stopped there on Friday to find we couldn’t pick apples ourselves. However, we did pick up an array of veggies and a peach pie that my husband really enjoyed. Here’s hoping we can go apple picking this summer again – we do love that farm…
You’re Welcome! I couldn’t believe so many orchard’s were negatively impacted by the frost. Hopefully you’ll be able to do some apple picking again this year. We are planning to go next weekend.
