Pick
Your Own
Carlson Orchards is a
120 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 25 year old blueberry
patch, a new Fall raspberry patch,
several grassy fields suitable for
gazing at the clouds, a frog pond
with an unofficial count of over 50
dragonflies (last survey conducted
by Ethan Brooks, age 11), the
really, really great pumpkin patch,
six varieties of peaches, five
varieties of nectarines, and of
course...APPLES!! Over 14
varieties.
Come
treat yourself and those you
love to a day of apple
picking, hot spiced cider, and
a generous helping of our apple crisp --
steaming hot and loaded with a
whipped cream topping! Pick
your favorite variety of apples
in season:
McIntosh,
Cortland, Macoun, Red Delicious,
Honeycrisp, Ginger Gold, Empire,
Royal Gala, Cameo, Jonagold,
Crispen, Braeburn, Fuji, Granny
Smith (and super secret
Baldwins....if you can find them
in the orchard.)
