Took my kids there for apple picking, was enjoyable and the kids had a ball. Can't complain about lack of apple varieties due to going later in the season. 10/10 would recommend to friends and family.

Always the annual tradition with my daughter. The apples, cider, and ice cream never disappoint. Cider is the best in the area, hands down. The ice cream is beyond delicious.

So many rows of fruit!!!! U-pick is $5 entry, $8.50 per quart (one quart minimum entry), and it is very much worth it because the berries are absolutely delicious. The shop is super fun with lots of fresh produce, baked goods, cider, and trinkets. The homemade ice cream is also delicious.

The farm is lovely and have everything for family and friends. We were there on Early October and there are plenty of apple with so many varieties than I ever known.
You should ask for recommendations if you have no ideas which type is the best. They also have cheat sheet that describe more in detail for each varieties.
They have small pumpkins lots. Corn maze, Sun flowers lots and many more.
The shop and bakeries where you can get hot apple ciders and ices cream.
You can buy ticket online for $3 which is cheaper than at the farm ($5)
To get to pick the apple, you will also need to buy a plastic bag. Small for $17, Large $35

It was very nice and lovely experience. They also have huge parking lot that well organized.

Best place for apple picking in the immediate area I live. Fastastic atmosphere. I don't mind the prices because it's their farm they can charge what they see fit

Bowman orchards is the place to go for apple picking, pumpkin picking and many other options available to get farm fresh produce. You can even stop in to get some pies for thanksgiving (Apple raspberry is a solid 11/10) cider donuts home made ice cream and more. Reminds me of apple orchards when I was younger and keeps that farm feeling alive. Lots of parking and a whole lot of orchard to pick from. Only complaint I have is no hard cider (this is a request I’d like to see hard cider sold here) regardless I’ve stopped looking for any other orchards in or around the area bowman has my business and I intend to keep it that way

Had so much fun with the family. We purchased the all inclusive pass online and it was so worth it. My 2 year old and 1 year old had a blast. Highly recommended!

Bowman Orchards has a Large selections of apples and pastries. They probably have the best cider donuts and fresh apple cider. There is a small section of old fashioned candy in the gift store. There is lots to do with the kids.from corn mazes, pony rides, apple cannon and tractor rides around the orchard. Currently building a new store on the premises. Big selection of locally grown produce. Mums are in season there as well.

This was my first time here. They had a large variety of apples available. We came early on a weekday so it wasn’t very busy. I can imagine how crowded it gets on the weekend (no thanks). It’s pricey but an overall good experience, especially for kids. My daughter loved it. She also loved the goats, they were very gentle with her. The cider donuts were good too. I will be returning in the future.

Went to the sunflower field at Bowman Orchards. It’s so beautiful. Try to go early in the morning before noon. Usually too crowded during afternoon. There’s also an ice cream shop that sell delicious ice cream. It’s a wonderful place to visit with family.

I really like Bowman Orchards. I did not pick apples so I can't comment on that. I love their store and the variety of apple types they harvest and sell. Their apple cider vinegar is so good. It is light in color and a little sweeter than what you buy in the supermarket. Their apple butter is rich and delicious.

Family run farm with the charm to match. We had a great afternoon of apple, blackberry and raspberry picking. The store and bakery were very good. If you don’t review the pricing and information prior to arrival, then that’s on you.

June 17, strawberries are just coming in, so you need to look for the ripe plants, but I got $50 of berries in 20 minutes. No complaints here.

Been going here for a few years now. Every year they've been becoming more popular and investing in making their property and products more professional. They have so much now that you'll be hard pressed not have fun!

Food wise they have, of course, Apples. However they have just about every apple there is. When you go in they'll give you a pamphlet saying which are ripe and ready to pick and a map to find them.

By the way, heads up, they started charging $5 entry fee however you can get it back of you spend $25 on apples.

Depending on the time of year they also offer berries such as raspberries strawberries and blueberries. Fall time they have pumpkins and fall flowers. I've even purchased corn husks here.

After picking Apple's you have to drive your car through a checkpoint where they'll have to inspect your car to make sure you're not hiding any.

Then you can leave or park your car in another parking lot by the stores. In this area, you can do and buy many things. They have a bakery where you can get fresh apple cider among other things like fresh apple pie, zucchini bread, cookies and more. They even have an icecream booth!

The General store has other farm goods and sells other fresh foods like pre picked apples, cheese, syrup, honey and other home goods. They have a lot of items here that can be used as gifts or toys for the kids. Most importantly they have fresh fudge!

If you have kids they have a lot of other activities to keep them entertained. They have a full wooden playground, petting zoo, tractor rides, corn maze, and more! Depending on the time of day you can also get food at a food truck

All in all the property is clean, the staff nice, and the whole business very professional for a apple orchard. The downside is it is a little expensive and can be crowded.

Little pricy, but definitely a great way to spend a fall afternoon. 5$ to park, smallest bag to pick was 17$. Corn maze, a few animals, tons of apple varieties to pick. Concessions and a store available

If I could give this place more stars, I would! Incredible, family friendly experience. Everyone always willing to help. Being in a wheelchair can make it a bit difficult to participate in such activities however, as soon as they saw me roll up to the admission shed, they called the handicap accessible hayride that had a bus wheelchair lift and offered a lending hand to my grandmother up the steps of the ride. Very clean and welcoming staff. This will now be an annual tradition. Thank you Bowman’s for starting off our Fall in an amazing way. See you again soon! ❤
