Our family owned apple orchards, farms and vineyards are ripe for the picking, where you'll find award winning apples, pumpkins, world-class wines and local craft ciders to enjoy.   

New York City may be “The Big Apple”, but this is the place to be for apple-picking in the fall. Now is the time to plan your autumn getaway, and we've put together some great ways for you to celebrate the season! 

A trip to nearby Jenkins - Luekin Orchards is the perfect way to get out into the crisp autumn air to enjoy the breathtaking fall foliage while selecting from over a dozen unique varieties of perfectly ripe apples. 

Set against the dramatic backdrop of Shawangunk Ridge, the orchard market also offers visitors an exciting variety of local gourmet produce, handcrafted jellies, jams, pickles, and more!

You’ll find delicious fresh corn, tomatoes, and other produce just down the road at Saunderskill Farms!  There’s something special at their farm market all season long, including homemade artisanal breads, handcrafted candles, fresh baked pies, and more.  

A great place to bring the kids to pick their own pumpkins, this family owned farm has been growing with pride since 1680!  While you’re there, check out the Corn Maze- kids love this local harvest attraction, and best of all, it’s free!

Guarded by the world’s 2nd largest garden gnome, nearby Kelder’s Farm invites visitors to pick their own pumpkins, apples, corn and more while offering a ton of classic fall activities like hayrides and a petting zoo.
