• Pick Your own
The main activity at AppleHill fruit farm is pick your own apples. Many Ottawa families make it an annual event to visit our orchard near Barrhaven and pick thier own basket of local Lobo, MacIntosh, Empire, Cortland and Spartan apples in season. Some have made the trip for 3 generations! It makes a life long family memory that your children will carry with them for a lifetime.
• Pre-picked
If you are in a hurry, we offer pre-picked apples at our stand as you enter our ample parking lot. We have many varieties pre-picked available for your selection.
• Wagon Rides
We offer free wagon rides (when demand warrents) around the orchard (Weekends). Some visitors walk out to do their picking and then hop on a passing wagon for the trip back to the parking lot so they don't have to carry thier heavy bounty.
• School Groups
Many local Ottawa Schools make an educational outing to our "pick your own apples" each fall.
