Do any of the local Apples farms have Honey Crisp apple juice
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! 🙂
When is the latest day these apple picking places stays open? End of October or a little into November
Each Orchard will be different. You should be able to find out the last date they will be open by calling the individual orchard you are interested in.
Thanks for checking ~ Danielle
Beckwith Orchards in portage county is not a pick your own.
Cindy,
Thanks for the clarification. I corrected it.

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
I’d like to know as well.
Monroe’s Orchard in Hiram. Great family, great fall festival for the kids and awesome fun!
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.
As of 2017, Horseshoe is no longer operating. 🙁
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.
