ALL NATURAL, PRESTICIDE FREE, NO GMO
Welcome to Apples and Art Orchards
APPLE UPDATE: 9/10/22
ATTENTION: We are not taking any more reservations for this season. Hopefully, next year will be a lot better. Due to having three late frosts this year, there are not a lot of apples. Then we had 100 mile and hour plus wind gusts which felled 3 trees and blew a lot of apples off. Apples and Art Orchards is for groups that pick 20 or more bags only. We are a U-Pick apple orchard where for only $15 you can pick a "half peck of apples" which is about 5 pounds and spend a fabulous afternoon in our beautiful mountain orchard and charming gold-rush era town - Julian, California. Our apples are pesticide free and all natural - they have never been sprayed. Our soil has not been contaminated with pesticides or weed killers either. The apples are not perfect like store apples - ours are pesticide free and have never been sprayed, so there may be spots or tiny holes. In addition to taking home your apples, you get apple facts, a tour of the orchard, and your own free apple cider making and tasting experience for groups of 20 or more bags picked. A deposit of $75 is required up front to hold the reservation two weeks before the date. If you want to just buy Julian apples, you can buy them at Wynola Flats: 3962 CA-78, Julian, CA 92036, 760-440-5258. You can buy our own small cookbook for only $7 each. Inside are our own recipes including the first place apple days pie recipe from 2015 and second place from 2009.
