Apple Picking at Carlson Orchards

THE 2024 PYO SEASON WILL BE HERE SOONER THAN WE KNOW IT! While the cherries are starting to turn red, they are not quite ready for picking yet. We are hoping to be able to open Pick Your Own within the next week. We are very excited to have cherries available this season (they were missed greatly last year) but please bear with us as we want to make sure they are as sweet as can be before we open them for picking. Please remember, due to state regulations, pets are NOT allowed at Carlson Orchards. While we love all animals, please keep yours at home.&nbsp;Thank you for your understanding. Carlson Orchards is a 100 acre working farm run by the second generation of Carlsons in Harvard, Massachusetts. We welcome all sorts of folks out to the country throughout the year to pick a variety of fruit crops. Our home orchard is 50 acres of rolling green fruit trees, a prolific 50 year old blueberry patch, a raspberry patch, sweet cherries, several grassy fields suitable for gazing at the clouds, a frog pond, nine varieties of peaches, five varieties of nectarines, and of course…APPLES!! Over 20 varieties.
