Baugher's And Fruit Market

Seasonal Tractor rides to pick-your-own apples, cherries, pumpkins, strawberries, peaches etc are our favorite! The sweets are a bonus. We love it here.

Went in fall missed the pumpkins patch kinda expensive for anything in the store. Bought snacks was great took pictures

Awesome place. Wish I lived closer, I'd be there weekly , really fresh produce, cashier was really nice and very helpful

What a great way to spend a lazy autumn day picking apples in Carroll County. There's a tractor that transports visitors out to the orchards where you have several apple varieties right there for the picking reds and greens. The store has all kinds of crafts stuff and pretty much any type of apple anything. Great place for the kids.

For my first apple picking experience ever we headed over to Baugher's Orchard based on reviews I had seen online. We went two weeks before Halloween and this place was packed. You have to wait in a very long line in order to purchase a band and bag for apple picking (or pumpkins if you go that route). I would say we stood in line for about an hour. I would imagine this may be a difficult wait for families with small children because there is nothing really to do or look at as you wait, and it is right next to the main road through the farm. They had a tractor that took you out to the apples, and that convenience was awesome. They dropped us off in the orchard and gave us some basic info about picking apples. I wish we would have gone earlier in the season because a majority of the trees no longer had any apples. Many of the ones left had holes or rotten areas. You can even see from my photo how many apples were on the ground versus in the trees. The other thing is we wish that they had some descriptions on what the types of apples were. All the apples were types we were unfamiliar with so it felt like we were picking blindly and hoping they would taste good in the recipes we had in mind. I know you can call ahead and ask what variety are being picked that day, and that may be a good choice for next time so we could do more research. Overall we had fun, and they clearly have a busy operation on this family farm, but next time I would go much much earlier in the season.
