I have visited Grandad's Apples multiple times! Extremely Friendly and Family oriented. Always a pleasure going and never disappointed. Apples, Bakery, jelly's and jams.. doesn't hurt either that they are across the street from where I work. Their County Support is invaluable and their Family is one of our best. Please come and visit!!…

I met a friend in Ashville for a day of fun. After visiting the Biltmore Estate, we headed out to Granddads to join her family at the fall festival. And what a time we had. We are here over Labor Day weekend. It is the end of the summer and start of fall. But know that here in NC in early September it will be blazingly hot as hades. Due to that some of the events, like the petting farm, may be canceled. We arrived and the place was quite busy even though it was late afternoon. While waiting around for someone else to join us, we walked around checking out everything. There is a charge for some of the activities, like the corn maze. There was a terrific band cranking out some 80s tunes. Once the last of our group arrives, we headed out to the corn field. We are having fun getting lost. The adults we were having fun singing Journey and Foreigner to the top of our lungs. It takes us about 45 minutes to get out. Then we headed over to the sunflower field. While there I mentioned since it was September..it would be awesome if the band played September by Earth Wind and Fire. Its like they heard my request. Dancing to September in a sunflower field is the best. After we had fun in the fields and enjoying the band..we head up to get some goodies. They do have pick your own apples or head here for pre picked. Expect a wait though. We finally made it to the inside. Some of group got apples (that is a separate line). We headed to the food. I picked up some of their apple oatmeal cookies, cider apples, and a frozen cider. And oh..my..word this stuff is good. Now our group includes small children. The minors in our group were all teens. And yet we had a blast. So this is a great place for all kinds of families. And im looking forward to seeing what this place comes up with next year. …

This was our 2nd year going and we thoroughly enjoyed each visit. It was well worth the trip coming from the Pee Dee area of SC. The apples are DELICIOUS! It was so much fun picking them fresh from the tree. The atmosphere was fun for all, young and old. The activities, the shop, the apple cannon shoot, the pond, the animals...EVERYTHING was GREAT! Can't wait to go again!…

The apples were fresh and delicious. Even during this COVID-19 time they were able to offer samples for most of the varieties of apples. Very nice people that work there.
