1 hour
Guided tour, samples, parking
Explore Morning Glory Orchard on a guided field trip through the apple orchard. Learn about tree life cycles, pollinators, and farming tools, then sample honey, apples, and apple cider.
This is an outdoor event. Wheelchair access is limited throughout the orchard, but the retail store is accessible. Bees and other flying insects may be present—avoid perfume or scented soaps and lotions.
All events are non-refundable. Cancel up to 72 hours prior to your reservation; cancellations with less than 72 hours' notice are not allowed.
Arrive at least 15 minutes early to park, unload, and walk to check-in. Your field trip starts promptly at the advertised time, and the group does not wait for late arrivals.
Yes, but you must all arrive and check in together. You may not hold spots for others.
Wear walking shoes. The grounds are mostly flat, but you may encounter divots and soft ground, especially after rain. Avoid flip flops, open-toed shoes, and high heels.
Morning Glory Orchard
Morning Glory Orchard runs a tight ship when it comes to their tours and special events, which visitors absolutely rave about. The Taste & Tour experiences and creative classes like the charcuterie apple decorating get consistently glowing feedback, with staff members like Andrea and Alyson earning specific shout-outs for being knowledgeable and welcoming. The real stars here are the apple cider slushies (especially the boozy versions), fresh donuts, and local honey, which people describe as the best they've ever had. The gift shop offers various flavored ciders and unique products that keep guests coming back. A few things to note: this isn't a pick-your-own operation, so if you're hoping to wander through orchards picking fruit, you'll want to manage expectations. The experience centers around their store, tastings, and organized events. A handful of visitors mentioned occasional staff curtness, particularly around timing for group arrivals, and there were isolated complaints about produce quality at season's end. That said, the overwhelming majority of recent visitors had fantastic experiences and found the events well worth attending. If you're near Nashville and looking for a fun apple-themed outing with excellent cider and engaging activities, this place delivers.
I brought my children here for a homeschool event. They had a wonderful time. The staff were friendly and very informative. We all learned so much about apple farming. Gift shop is adorable with delicious honey and cider. The best apple cider and honey I have ever tasted. BUY LOCAL HONEY 🍯! We also purchased cherry cider, honey, gallon of apple cider, apple cider slushies and tasty peach tea! It was such a wonderful experience and we will be back for more ciders and honey! Thank you morning glory orchard, my family had an amazing time!
