I was surprised and disappointed to realize that you can not pick your own apples. No apple in a bag can compare to the apple that you get to pick. It is common in New England to pick apples as a family outing, but does not seem possible in TN.

We visited and had a very nice time. The shop is open in the winter. They had some apples and jelly which were wonderful. We had heard of the apple friters and apple turnovers. They are wonderful and well worth the trip. The best time to visit is in the fall when the apple trees are in season. The hayride and story is a treat for the kids. The staff was very friendly and nice.
