Berlin Orchards

Best Apple Orchard in MA, the apples are delicious. We drive over an hour each year just to come here. The cider donuts here are out of this world and are the best around!!!

The place is super clean, reasonably priced, and employees are very friendly. So much nicer than the crazy-​crowded places like Tougas with their Disney-​like lines.
Cute hayride to the orchards, and yummy cider donuts. Highly recommended!

The best place to pick apples in Central MA. You can check their web site to find out what apples are ripe. Every weekend they have hay rides, and the tractor driver balances an apple on his head while he drives!
Inside their barn they have apples you can buy (without picking), and all kinds of locally produced items. The owner is often there and they are all able to tell you what kind of apples are best for baking, eating, or whatever you need. My kids love to play in the little play houses and get their faces painted there. We make sure to go often during the Fall.

Great place; the people were friendly; the animal pen was cute, they even had pony rides. The hay ride to the orchard was done by the friendly and helpful Bertie — the driver who balanced apples on his head as he drove. (Yes, two apples, and he smiled the entire time.) This is a small farm which clearly shows its appreciation for you being there. Unlike Tougas, I didn’t feel like I was being preached to every step of the way. Additionally, the quality of the fruit was excellent ! Very little bug damage, and huge fruit! The only complaint I have is that they closed a bit early. 5pm. The cider doughnuts are the best I have ever had. A ten pound bag of apples was $ 20 and 20 pounds was $ 30. Slightly more expensive than other places, but it makes-​up for it in quality.

Great place! Large variety of apples, farm animals, pony rides, face painting and pumpkins!!! My son had a blast! The family who owns the orchard are very friendly and genuinely appreciate your business.

Best place around for apple picking, the owner is friendly and often drives the tractor that pulls the hay cart. I especially like their choice of late season apples like the Fuji, Mutsu and the Jonagold.

A friend of mine grew up going to this orchard as a kid and always had fond memories of it. She took us there last weekend and it did not disappoint! Berlin Orchards is huge with the most varieties of apples of any orchard I’ve ever been to. The property is pretty big and spread out — there’s a farm with animals, a small gift shop, ice cream stand, the orchard and pumpkin patch, and acres of rolling fields. They have a hayride that takes you out to the orchard, which is both fun and practical since it’s a little bit of a walk to get to the apples from the main part of the farm.
I highly recommend sneakers or some sort of boots since the ground in the orchard is uneven and can be rocky in some spots. I wore the wrong shoes (ballet flats! what was I thinking?!) and I was pretty sore and dirty by the time we left. A light jacket might be necessary if you’re walking around for a while on a particularly chilly day. And definitely be prepared to walk, especially if you’re looking for a rare or specialty apple. I really like Honey Crisp apples and those were a little bit of a hike to get to since they were at the furthest end of the orchard.
The great thing about Berlin Orchards is that they take credit cards everywhere on their property, including the gift shop and ice cream stand. I also highly recommend getting some of their hot, freshly baked apple cider donuts. They melt in your mouth and have chunks of fresh apples in them!
This was by far the best orchard I’ve been to and it was a fantastic way to kick off the fall season in New England!

The best apple picking I’ve ever had at an orchard. The trees here were bursting with great apples. Much less bug damage and rotten apples than I’ve seen elsewhere. These guys know how to tend apple trees.
FYI: this isn’t the place to go if you’re looking for cider donuts, but they did have apple crisp.

Went here this weekend and had a wonderful time. We were here to celebrate a child’s birthday in the picnic area. The kids loved the barnyard animals. They had pony rides there for $ 5.
A Small bag (1 peck) of apples was $ 15, and a Large bag is $ 25.
This beats Tougas Farm prices by $ 5 a bag. Pros: it was a lot less crowded here! Cons: Tougas still beats Berlin Orchards when it comes to apple cider donuts.
We also got a hayride to the apple picking area which was fun. Definitely worth a visit.
(A word of caution: do not feed the horses here. They may be beautiful, but they bite! Just obey the signs and look at these lovely creatures from a distance.)
