Fruit Picking Tips & Etiquette
Fruit ripening varies throughout the year, so before you visit, be sure to check our website or call ahead to see what’s currently available for picking. We want you to have the best fruit-picking experience, and knowing what’s in season helps you plan your visit and ensures you get the freshest, ripest fruit. Our friendly staff is on hand to answer any questions, help identify the perfect varieties for your recipes, and ensure you have an unforgettable day at the farm.
Pick Gently
When picking,
cradle the fruit in your hand and twist gently to avoid damaging the branches or other fruits. This simple step keeps your fruits fresh and ensures future harvests remain plentiful for everyone.
Bring the Right Gear
Comfortable shoes are essential for navigating the orchard’s terrain, and dressing in layers helps you adapt to changing temperatures—mornings can be quite crisp! Don’t forget hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen if you plan to stay a while.
Stay on Marked Paths
Our rows and walking paths are clearly marked to protect both visitors and the orchard itself. By staying on the designated routes, you’ll help us preserve the trees, reduce soil compaction, and ensure a pleasant experience for all.
Share Your Memories
We love seeing families and friends enjoying the orchard—tag us on social media with your fruit-picking photos! Your snapshots help spread the word about Historic Weston Orchard & Vineyard and keep our traditions alive.
