Justus Orchard is a family owned and operated orchard with plenty of room for the kiddos to run.
Their prices were competitive to the other orchards and definitely a more affordable place for those on a budget. Bonus points for not having a wild crowd even with a giant tour bus of people there and their lines moved quick.
My family has made wonderful memories at this orchard for many years and we love it. The orchard is beautiful and scenic, the donuts and slushies are tasty, and the apples are wonderful. But we so enjoy the family who owns it. They have poured their heart and soul into the place and it shows.
The big playground is also great for the kids!
It was our first time visiting this orchard late September and we had a lot of fun! Couldn’t pick any apples but we got some prepackaged and they were delicious! Apple slushy was refreshing and the apple donuts were good. Will probably come back next year!
We had a great time! The apple desserts were delicious. The apple picking process was great. Everyone in our group (ages 5-73) was happy and satisfied with the experience! 🍎🍏🍎
We had a really fun time, it was a little bit chaotic and busy with not much direction on what to do. You can go inside and pay at the register to pick your own or buy 1/4, 1/2, and full pecks of many varieties of apples that have been pre picked. There is a playground with a big jumping air pillow, and a snack bar with cider donuts, fritters, churros, ice cream, cider icees and ice cream. Lots of picnic tables to enjoy your treats. Just a great day out with the family!
Lots of fun. Fried Apple pies and churro with ice cream were great. Fun zone for kids. Great apples.
What a fun family place. Had the fried apple pie with ice cream! Holy cow. Delicious. Also the donuts the following day, but didn't get a pic. Everyone there soooo nice! Cute little shop, great apples. Definitely a must go if around Hendersonville NC.
We absolutely love this apple orchard located in Hendersonville NC. Family run since 1968. There are so many to choose from but this one is our favorite and we've been to atleast 4 other ones in this area to compare. Very family friendly. They have wagons to pull to the field . one orchard, ill not name, we visited refused to let us pull the wagon to the field this one allows it. They have a playground, picnic area, yummy foods from donuts to fritters, bathrooms, great parking but get there early. Dogs allowed on leash. Give them a try.....UPDATE ....9/25/2023. Once again we returned to Justus. We chose to go on a Monday. The weekends can be very hectic and the car lines very long. We practically had the orchard to ourselves. I love the Justis family and all their staff. Yummy Donuts, fritters and apple juice. We were able to oick 1 peck each family unit. There is more apples in the store to purchase.
A wonderful selection of apples, I really appreciate you can mix and match so you can try them all!
Beautiful drive to a beautiful orchard. We had a great time picking apples! Haven't done it since I was young. The kids loved the playground and we loved being able to bring a picnic lunch and eat at the tables provided. Beautiful property. Great prices. Will be back!
Beautiful orchard. Good selection of apples. Samples are available for tasting to help in your selection of apple varieties. The staff is pleasant, helpful and informative. The baked goods are delicious! I prefer the donuts. Saturdays are especially busy with families as the play area for children is quite popular. I like to arrive soon after opening to avoid the crowds.
Amazing property. They have pretty much everything. Even a petting zoo and 2 apple Cannons. My kids had a blast and so did we. Make sure you try a fried apple pie because its the best we've ever had.
Always friendly, helpful staff. Great apples, this year the apples were tastier than ever. Family friendly. Apples pies (frozen) may be the best you'll ever have, albeit a bit pricey. Been going there 15 years now.
Large area, excellent to take a picnic and enjoy. Rides and extras only on the weekends. Ask where to pick so you can make the most with little kids
This is an awesome place to have apple picking. It's a large country style farm. They have many varieties of apples. Early fuji is one of our favorites. They also have vineyards, small playgrounds for kids, apple products, and bakery shop. Kids will love this place, so as adults.
THE FRESHEST BLACKBERRIES! This place offers more than of course just BB but it was the greatest little experience having the family out picking blackberries and coming home to enjoy. 100 times better than the store. Couldn’t ask for a more beautiful backdrop. All in all, a nice break for the whole fam. Great playground and inflated bounce pad. Then when done you can take home local apples, apple cider, donuts etc.
Just a couple miles from home, so a regular stop. Great, fresh cider, pies, and donuts. Grandson loved the play areas. Fun train ride. Always fun to go apple picking.
A great location for apple picking. We’ve gone on the weekend when they’ve had all the activities for kids with the jump pad and caterpillar car and apple shoot. We have also
gone during the week when it’s a little quieter and just enjoyed the playground and the apple picking. A great location for Anyone who wants to pick a variety of apples.
