What a Great Day Here Looks Like
Most families make a half day of it, and the ones who know come early. Here’s the route the regulars run.
The Perfect Farm Day
Arrive & grab your bag. Beat the crowd, park free, pick up your bag at the gate.
Pick the rows first. Morning is the quiet window in the orchard and the patch.
Bakery stop. Warm cider donuts, a slushie, maybe a whole pie for later.
Play zones & the candy cannon. Fall weekends it fires at 1pm sharp. Then the corn maze, jumping pillow and hayrack ride.
Golden hour at the Cider Barn. A flight or a glass on the patio while the kids finish the ropes course.

The small print, in plain words
Know Before You Go
- Wear closed-toed shoes. Orchard paths and the patch are natural and uneven. Dress in layers, mornings start crisp.
- Tickets are weather reliant and final sale. We stay open in light rain; check Facebook or TikTok if the sky looks serious.
- Fruit is priced by the pound. Your bag is weighed at the market on the way out, so pick what you’ll use.
- Cards accepted at the gate, the market and the Cider Barn.
- Bring ID for discounts. Weston residents and active military rates need a driver’s license or military ID.
- Leave pets at home. For the safety of guests and the farm animals, no pets please. Service animals are always welcome.
- Groups book separately. School trips, birthdays and private events have their own booking path.
