The goal of this event is to mainly pick apples, but because 90% of their apple crop has been damaged by a late spring frost, it will be very limited. There will be updates in monitoring the remaining available crops. If we cannot do apple picking, there are many other options to do at the orchards, which includes:

• Hayrides
• Pumpkinland
• Barnyard animals
• Farm Market
• Garden Center
• Harvest Grill
• Ship Bottom Beer Garden
• Corn Maze

There is no general admission fee for attending Linvilla Orchards. The only applicable fee would be the apple picking, hayride, & corn maze which can be bought online.

I will keep this event updated in regards to apple picking availability.
