PICK YOUR OWN INFO GUIDE

Before heading into our fields, here are a few helpful reminders and tips to ensure individual and food safety. Check out our picking calendar.

​

• The Orchard is closed for the season. We'll see you again in June 2024 for strawberries, cherries and blueberries.

• FREE parking & entrance fee to pick your own produce. You pay only for what you take home... And that's delicious fruits and vegetables.

• We gladly accept cash, credit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay as payment options for Pick Your Own activities and purchases at our farm stand.

• During our PYO Seasons, the Orchards is open to visitors rain or shine, but in the event of severe weather conditions, we reserve the right to close for the safety of our patrons. Please stay updated by following and checking our Facebook and Instagram pages for any closure notifications during the season.

• Please, only pick what has been identified as ready! Our picking areas are designated with careful consideration for the ripeness of the fruit.

• During our Fall season, driving through the orchard is not allowed.

• Before you begin picking, please wash or sanitize your hands.

• Wear weather-appropriate clothing and closed-toed shoes. Don't forget, you'll be on an active farm.

• Grab your sunscreen, hats, and water! Especially for your little ones.

• We happily permit your fur babies! Leashed dogs are allowed on the property, as long as they are walked outside of growing areas and picked up after.

• Picnic tables are available for your use on the farm. You are welcome to bring picnic blankets as well! Just ask one of our staff where the best spot is to set up your picnic. 

• We have a family sized port-a-potty near our farm stand and 2 standard port-a-potties in the field with hand washing sinks on the back.

• For your safety & the well-being of our apples, please don't climb on our trees!

• Mead Orchards has a zero tolerance policy regarding harassment of any kind. If your behavior is deemed inappropriate, you will be escorted off the farm immediately.
