Apple Picking In Kitchener/Waterloo and surrounding Area
Is there anything tastier than a Crisp Fall Apple? My favourite apple is the Honey Crisp, they are basically like the Cadillac of apples and are described as Super Crisp, Very Juicy and Bursting with flavour, how can you not want that!? When you go out to a place to pick your own, certain apples are much more affordable, like Honey Crisp and get you to spend a few hours in the Orchard!
Here are some spots where you can go to get some fresh from farm apples or go and pick your own. Make a day of it and go enjoy our beautiful local orchards.
Martin’s Family Fruit FarmLocated at: 1420 Lobsinger Line, close to the St. Jacobs market While you can’t pick your own apples here, they offer all you would expect from an apple farm, crisp apples in many varieties, fresh pressed cider and many preserves. They also have store hours that you can still get it after work. This is a great stop if you are pressed for time and don’t want to pick your own but still want farm fresh.

Orchard Home FarmLocated at: 235 Howell Rd, St George – Between Cambridge & Brantford
This is the orchard I make a stop at once a year to pick my own apples. There’s something about an apple right off the tree that is just so tasty! This orchard offers many varaties of apples both in pick your own or in their outdoor farm store. They also have pumpkins and homemade tasty treats if you are looking for a reason to stop in.

Brantview Apples & CiderLocated at: 225 Howell Rd , St George
Just down the road from Orchard Home Farm is another family owned orchard that offers more fun for the whole family including a tractor ride to pick your own apples and a corn maze! They also offer many apple products including cider, butters, jellies and even apple cider donuts!

Chudleigh’s
Located at: 9528 regional Road 25, Milton
Chudleigh’s is full of many happy family memories for a lot of people in the region and this is why I’ve included it on the list, even though it’s a bit of a drive and outside the region. Chudleigh’s is more of a tradition that just a place to pick your apples. They offer admission to get in and you can take wagon rides, visit the farm animals, swing on the ropes swings on the nature trail and watch the kids play on their slides and hay maze. They offer BBQ for lunch options and of course their apple blossom dessert! Make a day of it, take your family and enjoy all the Chudleigh’s has to offer, they have been offering up fall fun to families for generations.
