Kielbasa Orchards — Attraction in Hadley

🍁It's that time of year again and I love this place.

My first year here was special. I was told, by an older woman, where to find the sweetest Empires and what to look for. It was a little more of a hike, but SO worth it. She also told me about the orchard, it was originally planted by a gentleman, so his wife would always have an income. She, the wife, was a very nice woman with a great smile. I try to come every year and I love the close family feeling you get when you're here.

Prices have definitely changed a lot since I first started coming. The small bag is now $15 The large bag is now $25 But you won't find fresher or juicier AND without pesticides.

Out of curiosity, I'd love to know just how old this orchard is. I imagine they'll be here forever, 🙂 I noticed a LOT of newly planted trees...

Had a great time picking apples here! The workers were very very nice, and even gave us a free apple pie kit so that we could try pie baking out with our fresh picked apples. The place was huge, tons of apples, lots of happy families, and they let us bring our Australian shepherd which was fun. Apples were delish. A great no frills apple orchard (they didn't have cider or baked goods or corn maze or anything if you're looking for all of that), and seemed like a great family owned small business which we were...

This place was so nice. We are from out of town and typically go to a very large orchard for apple picking, but we were super glad we switched it up this year. This one was nice, low key, local, and small- but still had plenty of apples. There also a couple of peaches left when we went! The people at the front was super nice and friendly. Would recommend to...
