Excellent! No frills. Pick apples, try the donuts. All was great! Staff were helpful and friendly! Will return in the future.

Small place but you can buy the apples per pound. When we went they were $ 1/per pound. They have a small play area with crawl throw hay stacks, a digger toy, and a bunch of wood pieces to put your face in for pictures. Apple donuts were good but very heavy, I prefer Edwards donuts but I would Come back for the PYO apples per pound rather than having to buy a whole basket.

We love taking our kids to the orchard in the fall. And after going to one that is highly praised nearby we had enough with rude people, over picked trees, high prices and parents that let their children run wild in the orchard. Valley Orchard is NOT like what I just described. We’ve been there for three years in a row, generally around the end of October. The people are pleasant, always polite and very helpful. The orchard is smaller, but the trees are not over picked. And, as a general rule there are few people around. This is what both my husband and I wanted our children to experience! But that’s not just the orchard that makes this place special. The apples are less costly(and far more tasty) than others. And the bakery… yum. We absolutely can’t get enough of the wonderful(fresh) donuts. In fact, we generally have many people around during the Sycamore Pumpkin festival and we make a special trip to Valley Orchard just to get apples and donuts!(That should tell you something when it’s about a 40 minute drive one-way.) This is not just an orchard — it’s a place were families can make memories, take their time picking and not have to walk for miles through uneven terrain. We just love it!!!

Having been to other orchards in the area, this one is the most pleasant. No miles to walk, no loads of screaming kids. Don’t get me wrong I’m not just comparing to other orchards. This orchard is laid back with rows of dwarf trees that are easy to pick. An prices are very reasonable.(10 $/pound less than other orchard we were looking at). The apple cider is delicious, and the apple cider donuts are tasty. Worth a drive out

This is a fabulous orchard! They have great apples and their donuts and cider are good, too. I love that you can pick as many apples as you want – no minimum! Their prices are good and there isn’t a lot of «stuff» to do, which is fine – keeps the orchard about the orchard! Pick your own is $ 1.45 per pound. Bargain! We love Valley Orchard! Best thing about it: the owner’s pet peeve is sprawl. I couldn’t agree more!
