HILLSIDE APPLE ORCHARD

We are grateful for the continued support of our guests, and we want to share several meaningful updates coming to the farm for the 2026 season.

These changes have been made with great care, with the goal of improving the overall experience for every family who visits us.

One of the most exciting improvements is the relocation of our pumpkin patch. Beginning this season, the hayride will no longer be required, as the new patch will be easily accessible by walking. This adjustment is intended to make the experience more convenient and enjoyable for all guests.

We also want to share that we will no longer be carrying giant pumpkins.

In addition, beginning in 2026, general admission will be required to purchase any produce on the farm, including apples, sunflowers, and pumpkins. This decision was made to ensure that the guests who have paid admission—and who are here to enjoy the full range of activities and experiences—receive the value and priority they deserve.

We understand that these changes may not be welcomed by everyone. Please know that they were not made lightly. Our responsibility is to care for the guests who support the farm, and to preserve the quality of the experience they have come to expect.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you to a wonderful 2026 season.
