U Pick Peaches, Blueberries, apples
We had a lot of fun in the orchards picking fruit. The trees were loaded with peaches and plums, one type of apple was available (first of the season), and it was the last weekend for blueberries. We had a wagon ride out and back to the peach tree orchard and were able to walk to the other orchard areas, The trees were beautiful. The staff is very helpful in giving instructions and answering questions. The u pick fruit was very reasonable! We were a group of adults, but children would have a blast. There is a petty zoo and a store where they sell picked fruit, cider, homemade donuts. I will go out of my way to go again.

Apple picking, fun for kids
Excellent place for picking great apples. Even my little two year old granddaughter was able to pick. Staff was very polite and helpful. Grandkids had a ball picking apples, going through the corn maze, walking through the pumpkin patch and then feeding the animals. Price was very reasonable. $3/ person, children under 3 free, seniors free. That included apple picking, corn maze and animal feeding. Free apple cider to taste. It was buy three bags of apples and get one free. My son accidently picked 9 bags instead of 8 and they told us to just take the extra bag. If I lived closer (we are from PA) I would go there every year to get my Cortland apples.

Quick stop was well worth it
Family
We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon with our teenage son. He wanted some big Honeycrisp apples and was not disappointed! Lots of things to choose from: different apple varieties, apple butter, jams/jellies, candles, etc. When getting a gallon of fresh cider from the fridge, I noticed bags of pitted sour cherries and snapped up 2 bags. Way less expensive per pound than those we get at our farmers market and we have to do the pitting! Staff scattered around were friendly and able to answer questions, but kept their distance. Mask wearing and touch less checkout.

Pick your own fruit! Terrific sour cherries!
Solo
I visited in mid-July to pick sour cherries. The orchards are well-kept, with good diverse plant cover, but it's mowed enough to walk around. The trees were groaning under the weight of all those gorgeous cherries!

They supply the pails and bags - all you have to do is fill them. It took me about an hour and a half to fill two pails, but I took my time because it was such a beautiful day. The fruit is in great shape. For 30 cents more per pound, they will pit the cherries for you too, but allow extra time. I was one of the last to start and last to finish, so I had to wait an hour. They have bottled water sale if you forget yours, and fruit rollups if the kids are desperate. There are porta-johns on site. They had some of the first peaches of the season. They also have a small fruit stand in the main building. Yesterday they carried blueberries, raspberries, peaches, sweet cherries, and a few sour cherries. There were also some vegetables available.

This would make a great outing for families. Even young kids can pick - or run up and down the rows when they get tired of picking. The price per pound is very reasonable, $1.05 per pound, pitted (75 cents per pound if you pit your own). Bring a cooler and your own water, and bring some Wet Wipes for your hands and arms when you're done!

What an awesome family experience
Kim and her family were so helpful and accommodating. Another orchard close by recommend we stop by Overhiser for some peaches. We were very surprised that they also had a small petting farm where my daughters (age 2 & 6) could feed the animals. After we visited with the animals we were picked up on a cart and brought to a part of the orchard to pick peaches which felt like a private tour. The peaches were good but there apple cider was soooo YUMMY!! We made an appointment to come back the next day and go fishing in their private pond/lake and boys in the family were so helpful and we caught a lot of fish. What a great experience!!

Apple Orchard Happiness
Couples
We love coming up to the Overhiser Orchard from the Chicago area. The apples are perfect and never been less! The mutsu apples last from October to February.... The other apples don't last as long as we eat them every day..... delicious for the tart and sweet taste .... for fresh and baking. We love the Overhiser family! They are stunning and thank you for the gift of picking in your orchard of many varieties of apples in October. Joan and Paul

Delicious cherries and u-pick yourself :)
We went to the orchard to go cherry picking and had a great afternoon. The woman at the cherry trees was very nice and she told us to make sure we tried the cherries as we went since there are a lot of different kinds. They have neat ladders that are easy to move around. My daughter had a great time and the cherries were delicious! The price was very good, too.

Fruit picking
We stayed in Michigan City and we were looking for day trip activities. The farm is about 70 minutes from there so we decided to go pick fruit. We picked peaches, apricots, and cherries. There are some farm animals and the kids got to feed the cow so it was a good time for all.
