Edit to respond to the owner's question: Of course you can share the pictures! I'm glad you like them that much :)
What a fantastic place!
This is an incredibly lovely area. More than just an orchard or a store, this is a destination worth visiting!
This wonderful location filled with an imaginative play area with "horses" named after apple varieties and a "sandbox" filled with corn (I've lived in Wisconsin most of my life, but have never come across that before), along with cornhole and lawn bowling, and opportunities for scenic pictures abound.
There is a large parking area here, and for good reason. There were a significant amount of visitors when we arrived. This is clearly a popular place.
The interior is huge and open, and there is a large variety of products other than apples here. Honey, jams and jellies, cheeses, decor, apparel, utensils, and APPLE CIDER DONUTS!!!

I'm not sure if no one else has ever asked, but a variety pack would be a wonderful addition. We would gladly have each bought a package that had a few of every type of apple you have.
Still, well worth the visit! The apple cider donuts are a must-try, and the blueberry jam...

Sunrise Orchards features a market where our family purchases cheese curds, jams, and honey. The orchard features ongoing events through the apple harvest season, a playground for children, a dog park and ample parking. Each year our family looks forward to traveling to Gays Mills to visit...
ย ย ย Read moreLast weekend, there were vendars in their park area. You needed to know the vendor location. Then, it was hard to use Google Maps on your phone for g.ps. And if your regular car g.p.s isn't updated.. it's useless. Plus some area it don't work at all. But there are 3 or more apple orchards there. A big one and a few on the way out. You should know where you're going before you get there with some kind of direction. We got separated from the other driver because of cars between us. But overall, it was a nice place and very busy the weekend we went. They have cider donuts and jams. plus salsa and apples ๐ and t-shirts and trinket stuff, and if you find the right stations,...
