Eckert's Orchard

Always a thrill to visit Eckert's Orchard when a new picking season arrives. I love picking strawberries, blackberries, peaches and pumpkins. The general store is packed with amazing items, many of which are made with their fresh produce. The staff is super helpful and friendly. Be sure to bring a dollar worth of quarters to feed the cutest goats around! Perfect place for a family outing.

This place was amazing !! The staff was over the top friendly , and their cider strawberry slushies were a 10/10. We also strawberry picked, which was super fun. Overall, this is a good place for families to enjoy the day together!

Very fun place! Lots of activities for kids and we loved shopping in the store. We got some salsa, apple butter, and some apple cider donuts. Everything was good!

A great go to for family experiences. We love the apples, the fall pumpkin adventures, the Easter events, the strawberry picking. A great way to be together as a family on a sunny day.

I have to say it's an awesome plaice to take family. It has plenty of things for kids to do.Right now is the best place to get your apple butter and also pick out your own pumpkin and apple from off the tree for the apple and fresh off the vine off pumpkin.You can also ride a camel . One hump so dromedary just saying. LolThere is a play place that looks like a ship. Then a huge slide for kids to slide down but not ADULTS jus to let you know. In case you want to slide down. The petting Zoe if awesome you get to feed all the animals. Bring plenty of quarters to feed the machine. It's a lot of fun for the whole family.

What a fun experience! My son and I went to see the sunflowers and pick blackberries. We visited on a weekday, which was great because there weren't many people there. You take a tractor-trailer ride to the sunflowers and blackberries. The sunflowers were beautiful and great for photos. And it was fun to go through the rows of blackberries to pick. They have massive play areas for kids, but obviously with COVID, they are closed. But seem like kiddos would have a blast (post-COVID).

THE FOOD TRUCK IS AMAZING AND SO NICE!! We asked for one cookie because we. Could only afford one but they gave us 1 extra!! They are so nice and I definitely suggest their food! And they have a big variety and selection of food!

Drove from over an hour away after hearing they don't cancel for rain, only storms, on their message when someone calls. Got there and it was sprinkling a bit so they told us they were holding off for the moment because of rain. After nearly two hours and the skies being blue and clear we asked when they would be opening back up and then they finally told us they would be closing for the day. They had every opportunity to tell us that but instead let us wait for close to two hours with three small children. Do not believe their message that they don't close for rain, bc they closed down for the day due to a bit of sprinkling. What is worse is that they never were upfront about closing for the day and let us waste nearly two hours. We come here yearly but we will not be back after this lack of customer care. On the way to another orchard now, who isn't closing when it's beautiful outside.

This used to be my go-to pumpkin patch for several years. It's a nice size location with lots of activities to choose, particularly for kids. However, they have become very greedy over the last couple of years. If you wish to hop on a tractor-pulled trailer to go out to a pumpkin patch to pick a pumpkin, you now have to buy an all-inclusive, one-price-fits-all ticket that is $15-20 per person. If you have younger kids and want to enjoy all the activities on-site, this may be a good value. However, for adults or families with older kids that just want to enjoy picking a pumpkin and walk around the site, this is a terrible value. Their offering used to have many options where a person could opt to go for the all-inclusive ticket or just buy the trailer ride for a reasonable price. No longer!!!! Adults and families with older kids---pick somewhere else to go.

Main problem- their website said they still had blackberries to pick. I knew it was late but the website said so.The not-too-friendly tractor driver thought I was picking apples which, by the way, are ready to pick. He wanted to drop me off there even though I was not picking apples.I was a good sport because mistakes happen. They offered me already picked blackberries, which after a parking lot tasting turned out to have basically no flavor and will need sugar and a prayer to use.I have always enjoyed coming here. The ONLY reason I'm giving for one star is to make sure you call the orchard before heading out. The website is unreliable. I will probably come back but take special care next time.
