Important details
- Children require adult accompaniment.
- Download directions before leaving; cell service and Wi-Fi are unreliable, and the orchard's address does not appear correctly on GPS. Do not go to 1711 Highway 78.
- Use 743 Farmer Road, Camp Cedar Glen, as a navigation reference, but do not drive all the way to the camp. Follow the bluebird signs and look for the orchard's gate at the fourth driveway on the right.
- After parking, send one person to check in for your picking bag.
- Finish picking when you hear the roundup call, 5 minutes before the next pickers arrive.
Cancellation Policy
No refunds if you cancel. Late arrival may result in refused entry; arriving more than 15 minutes late forfeits picking without a refund. Rescheduling may be attempted but is not guaranteed. A full refund applies if the orchard must close due to state or national hazardous weather conditions.

FAQs
No. Pets are not allowed in the orchard.
Watch for squirrel holes, stumps, sprinklers and irrigation tubing that can cause trips. Stay alert for possible rattlesnakes, and do not climb trees.
Twist apples off rather than yanking them. Place apples with black spots in the wooden boxes for cider-making instead of dropping them on the ground. Leave the round tree-name tags in place.
