The Taste of Autumn
In Lewis County, NY
ATTENTION CUSTOMERS:
There will be NO U-PICK this Fall due to a highly contagious bacterial disease (only contagious to apple trees, not humans) called fire blight; we are preventing the spread by not letting customers walk through the orchard.
Additionally, supplies will be limited due to a late Spring frost that killed off a large portion of apples.
Due to these circumstances, we will ONLY be opening the Apple Shack and Cider Press and offering pre-picked apples.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope to see you at the Apple Shack this Fall!
WE ARE TENTATIVELY OPENING SEPTEMBER 1st, 2023, DEPENDING ON AVAILABILITY OF APPLES!
Apple Shack – Pre-Picked Apples – Open Thursday – Sunday, 10am-4pm.
Bushels of apples MUST be pre-ordered. Please call Patsy 315-771-4354 to pre-order.

There will be no U-PICK or playground this Fall!
