Apple Annie's Produce & Pumpkins

About an hour and a half drive East of Tucson, Apple Annie's is a decent little farm to visit if you make a day trip and visit some winery's or other local interest in the area. They have a corn maze ($10/person), fresh picked or pick your own produce options, hayrides, pick your own sunflowers and pumpkins, and a little store at one part of their farm. Then several miles away they have an apple orchard that you can pick your own apples. They also have a gift shop, and another little market store with more baked goods. It is a good time if you have children or looking to get out of town for a couple of hours.

If you need a big batch of dazzling seasonal fun, head to Apple Annie's Produce and Pumpkins. From the covered outdoor store, with piles of pre-picked varietals, to the acres upon acres of pick-your-own fruits, vegetables, and gorgeous pumpkins of all sizes and colors (orange, lemon-yellow, white, grayish-sage, warty mixed-color, and more), there's something for everyone. And when you're finished on the produce side, head over to the sunflower fields, where the rows and rows of person-high flowers just seem to smile right at you. There's also a large corn maze, and if you get lost there on the weekend, they promise to come find you by Thursday. Too, too fun -- and don't forget a stop at Annie's Country Store, for lunch, artisan crafts, and all the apple treats (bread, butter, and pie) you can possibly eat!

For anybody looking to go to Apple Annie's for produce. Be fore warned! We checked the website for the previous calendar for pickling cucumbers. We also called their recorded daily number for what they had in stock and they said they had pickling cucumbers. So we jump in the truck and do the hour and 40 minutes down there. Walk into the produce stands. And it was wall to wall empty bins. We went into the refrigerated produce area not a pickling cucumber in sight. Went out to the one person that was there and asked when they're going to restock. She said" I don't know"! And went back to looking at her phone. We went out to the Self pick sections. And the pickling cuke section was picked through.What a waste of the day. 4 hours of driving. $45 in gas. Very disappointed in them. Especially when you call in the morning and it goes directly to voicemail and a voicemail says it's full. So you called The daily number that they have an updated daily and it shows that they have the product in stock. Really Apple Annie's you can do better than that! Anybody know where else I can get pickling cucumbers?

My partner and I usually stop at Apple Annie's produce stand after we've been to the orchard. If we've driven two hours, we might as well make both stops. The orchard is only a few miles further from I-10, and there is plenty of signage. If you are making the trip for vegetables and are traveling any distance, call the hotline first to see what they have.Since we stop by when we've already been to the orchard, we have not picked our own produce here or come for the pumpkin patch. We try to park near the tree line at the produce stand (so the fruit doesn't cook before we get it home) and buy produce that is already picked. The already picked vegetables typically are higher priced than what is in the grocery store. That said, the baker's dozen of sweet corn (not available for u-pick) is fresh and deliciously sweet. If you arrive close to lunch time, you also can get some perfectly roasted ears of sweet corn buttered or not with a selection of seasonings. Yum!

Very fun place to go with as a family. They have a lot to see.I would definitely come back and do a family photoshoot here.It's a cool place for the kids as well. They are able to pick veggies and the have a fun maze during fall time

If I were coming here for produce, I guess I would be upset by the lack of options. The shortage IS posted on their website and social media though. This is our first time here and I was fully expecting just precut pumpkins in dirt. The land was beautiful, beautiful mountain background. Carts, shears, snacks, picture perfect spots all readily available. It was hot but a wonderful family day.

I was excited about the Sweet Corn Extraveganza and looking forward to an event.My other half and I drove 90 minutes to get to this farm , which was pretty easy to find. Turning into the drive I have to say i was underwhelmed but hopeful.There was a sign that read "Hay Rides" but alas there weren't any. A few families were there and some wandered into the fields close by but few came out with any produce. The produce stands were not full nor was there a large variety. My guy walked over to the wall that held apple butters but he didn't select any.Needless to say I was not going home without sweet corn so I bought a half dozen and one roasted corn on the cob.The roasted corn was good but they use a crock pot with margarine that customers can use and there is a butter brush that's not disinfected, be cautious. The corn I brought home was smaller than the roasted ones they sold.Disappointed in the "Extraveganza".

Disappointing customer service. I was waiting for my chile order to get roasted. The clerk said they would let me know when my chiles were ready, so I went to wait on the bench next to wheelbarrows. After half an hour, I went to check on my chiles, they no longer had the ones I asked for. I had asked for 4 bags of hot and 4 bags of medium; They only had 1 bag of hot left.The clerk then berated me for not asking about the status of my order earlier, saying it was my fault they no longer had the ones I originally asked for.If it had been busy I could understand the confusion, however it was a slow day. During my wait, I was often the only customer in the store area.As a returning customer, I don't want to recommend the Apple Annie's produce & pumpkins location to my friends.

Been taking the family to Apple Annie's for pumpkins and produce for years. Has been a good experience until this past Halloween. Tried to pick our own apples and there were none in the orchards. The rest of the trip was good though.

We had a lot of fun taking pictures with the sunflowers and the pumpkins. It's a really cute set up!
