Lynd Fruit Farm

Growing up in Florida, I never got to go Apple picking or do the Fall things I can do here. This farm is letting me live out my childhood dreams! Their apples are really good and GIGANTIC. My whole life I was used to using grocery store apples for desserts and eating. But once I picked fresh apples, it is amazing how different they taste. For the past 2 years in a row I have gone honey crisp apple picking. They are my favorite apple and I make delicious apple galettes with them. Both years the apples have had the perfect texture and amount of sweetness. We got a large bag of apples each trip.Apple picking is so fun to do with friends and family. I've gone apple picking with husband and this past season with an out of town friend. Both times were super enjoyable and I think my dog enjoyed it the most. He loved greeting all the kids and adults around who were picking apples. He also loved to smell the farm odors while we were driving up to the apple picking area.Lastly I love their shop. They offer a good variety of produce, baked goods, sweet treats and unique gifts to buy. I absolutely love their apple cider donuts and nothing beats when they are served hot and fresh to you.I am looking forward to many more trips at this farm and I will have to see when I pick other fruits throughout the year since I'd love continue supporting this business.

This farm is near by my home, so we frequent it regularly. This was one of the first times I came on a Saturday (at 1pm). Lynds has a large farm market where you can purchase vegetables, baked goods, ciders, salsas, snacks, gift items etc. the outer perimeter has pumpkins, apples mums. There are two food trucks on site and open on weekends. There is a kid play area. They have pick your own apples and used to have u pick pumpkin patch (not sure if thats still a thing, I bet it is) There is also a huge corn maze. Its a fun place to make a destination. Very family friendly. Tip: Dogs not welcome, unless service dog. It was crowded. The lot completely full. My husband and I entered their market area and he saw all the people and went "want to leave?" I looked at the lines, they werent bad... it was more a crowd of browsing people. We knew what we wanted: apples for baking (winecrisp) apples for eating. (Ladacrisp) and 3 pumpkins. So many pumpkins to choose from. Our pumpkins were $3, $3 and $4. Great price for the size of specialty pumpkins. We were pleased. We got out of there for under 40 bucks and it only took 3-4 minutes in line to be rung up.

This place is amazing! We were here years ago with our daughter but the focus then was pumpkins and the maze. This time around, our motivation was the highly prized Pixie Crunch apples. My hubby is an ED aid in Westerville schools and his class has previously taken annual trips during apple season to Lynd's. His first trip introduced him to the Pixie Crunch apple - the absolute ONLY apple he will now eat. Each year he bought a half peck and then cried when the last one was gone. This year, Lynd's changed their school offerings so they did not go.So hubby asked if I would go with him and I said certainly! We went on a beautiful Saturday late morning during the height of Pixie Crunch season. We agreed we didn't need to pick our own so we went straight to the market (after turning in too early and heading to the maze).The had plenty of parking and the place was hopping. I don't think I had been to the market before - it was huge. We immediately headed to the bagged apple section and located the Pixie Crunch bins. My hubby pored over the decision of how much to buy while I googled how long they might last. He landed on a peck and a half. I knew he wasn't going to share so I bought half a peck to eat and share with friends. They are $15 for a half peck - probably over $3.50 a pound but what the heck. When in Rome . . . We made our way towards the register and passed a rounder of popcorn stuff. I've recently entered a new air popcorn phase and thought I'd give their popcorn a try. They had a half gallon plastic jug of kernels and I grabbed one as I passed by. No clue on price so I figured it was insanely high. We had a short wait in line which gave me a moment to look around a bit. The people in front of us were buying some interesting confections that I wish I had seen. When it came my turn, I was shocked the popcorn was only $4. A great deal! I should have bought more as it's almost gone at the time of this writing (several weeks later). I've also only got 2 apples left and gave 3 away to a friend.I will definitely plan a trip next year - or maybe around Halloween as I really want to look at what else the market offers. HIGHLY RECOMMEND a trip! So much fun.

We go every year! They do a great job keeping their pages updated with apples available for picking and weather conditions. Lots of other activities to do including the apple cannons which our my kids favorite. They get to shoot at various things including a bus! We enjoy the market that has all kinds of vegetables, pumpkins, baked goods, and you can also get apples already picked. It can get a expensive between the apples, market, and extra activities.

One of my favorite places. Love to get green beans and red potatoes with a sweet onion in season. Could eat them all summer long. Like that fry pies are available. The smoothies in the heat of the summer is refreshing. Folks are very pleasant. Didn't do corn on the cob this year so i can't speak to that. Couldn't find a white sweet potato nor a true beefsteak tomato this year.

Lynd has everything. I truly love this market in my community. Apple picking fresh produce sweets pies gifts flowers pickles doughnuts fun

From peaches to homemade salsas, lynds pretty much has ya covered with whatever your craving. Not only are the pies delicious, but the activities like the corn maze are always a great way to spend a hot Saturday afternoon. If you ask 10 people in Ohio how they feel about this place, 10 people will say they love it. It's full of history, memories, and sweet treats. Plain and simple, always have a great time here!! -chip Home sweet home -Munchie

I mainly shop their market, although I know many who come in the fall to pick their own apples. Earlier in the summer, they have pick your own berries (separate location) and soon their sunflower field will be open (also different location). Today I just stopped to get some fresh late summer produce. Tomatoes, peaches and melons are unrivaled.

I love Lynd Fruit Farm with all the varieties of fruit along with a lot of stuff--the Ohio State items. Being able to go out and pick your own apples is a great thing to do with your family. I will go there anytime I get a chance.

Hand a lot of fun picking apples. It does get busy and you have to check online to see if they still have varieties to be picked because it goes so fast. But the apples are always really delicious and some varieties they have created them selves! Evercrisp and ludacrisp are some of the best apples I've ever had.
