PYO Smolak Farms

in New England: Quick and Cheap
Tags: , , , ,

Smolak Farms–a 300 year old New England Farm with Pick Your Own orchards and berry fields in North Andover, MA–offers something for everyone on 130 acres of historic farmland. The “family farm experience” includes a petting zoo, old-fashioned ice cream stand, home made baked goods, and one of the most expansive orchards of antique apples in New England. Smolak Farms smartly offers seasonal activities as well, like a traditional hoe down, hayrides, and The Great Pumpkin Festival. It’s also a destination for event planners and film crews looking for the perfect bucolic setting. When you go, check out the hilltop gazebo, a truly romantic site for many a wedding at dusk.

Picking your own harvest is about as good as it gets for a cost-effective outing. August is the time for peaches, heirloom tomatoes, and sweet raspberries. Come September, the apples and pears are beginning to peak, and by October, the fields are laden with pumpkins. Check the PYO schedule for details.Smolak_festival-apples
