All pick-your-own fruit is priced by the pound for whatever
you pick, with no additional charges.

Pick-your-own season begins June 20, when blueberries and
cherries, sweet and sour, will be available. Blueberries continue
to ripen through July, but cherries will only be available for pick-
ing through June.

A wide selection of fl owers are available during the summer.

You can wade through waist-high fl owers to create bouquets in
the cutting garden.

During weekends in September, October and the fi rst week-
end of November, there are wagon rides through the orchards
for apple picking.

Th e orchards, which span about 80 acres, grow a range of
fruits and berries. Th e main crops are apples, peaches and blue-
berries, with smaller acreage of pears, plums, apricots, cherries
and blackberries.

Brian Smith, who started Solebury Orchards in 1985, still
runs the farm today. Cider pressing began in the early years of
the farm and Solebury Orchards Cider can be found throughout
the area today. Th e market is open from late June through March
to buy whatever is in season. ●
