HOURS: Monday thru Friday – 8am to 6pm, Saturday 7am to 4pm. Last Entry is 1/2 hour before closing.
Update for Friday, August 23rd
All PYO sales will receive a 25% discount today and Saturday due to some damage from the storm on Wednesday. The 25% discount will apply for all PYO crops and will be in addition to any other discounts received due to coupons, club members and quantity discounts. There is quite a bit of damaged fruit, but still some good fruit to find. Fruit on the east sides of the trees weathered the storm better.
Check in for all crops is with the peaches, across from the entrance on Moyer Rd. (This is across from the entrance used for the strawberry patch when strawberries are in season.) Follow signs on Weaver Rd.

Wristband Policy:
We require wristbands for everyone entering the pick-your-own areas, which allows us to identify people who are in the orchard as paying pick-your-own customers. This leads to greater security for us and for you, ensuring that everyone who is on the property is accounted for. It is also a way for us to keep overall costs down by ensuring that everyone is paying for the fruit they pick.
WRISTBANDS ARE FREE ON NON-PEAK DAYS – MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY, excluding holidays.
- Wristbands are always free for children 12 years old and younger who are accompanied by a paying parent or legal guardian.
- Wristbands are $2 for customers 13 years old and up on peak days (Saturdays, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day and Columbus Day in 2019).
A $10 pick-your-own discount card provides 10% off all pick-your-own purchases throughout the season. (Most customers find this card pays for itself within the first two visits.)
Extreme Heat Policy:
If the temperatures are forecast to be above 90 degrees, we will be open for pick-your-own from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. We make this call based on our reading of highly accurate local weather forecasts.
Season: July for Sugar Plums; August for Yellow and Red Plums
