Cherry Stone Orchard grows sour cherries for pick-your-own harvest on South Slope Road outside Emmett, one of several small u-pick orchards clustered along that stretch of road alongside Candy Apple Orchard and Jackson Orchards. The business has run under that name since 2010. Sour cherries ripen fast and the picking window is brief, so early summer is the time to go.

Trees are kept low for ground-level picking, and the orchard runs on minimal spray with regenerative, conservation-minded practices. The operation traces back to 1997 in Weiser before planting roots in Emmett in 2015, building on the 85-year-old Benson Orchard legacy. U-pick and we-pick both run mid-June through October.

Nampa

The operation has since rebranded as Lowe Family Farmstead in Kuna, same phone number, same team, still built around "Idaho's Original Corn Maze."

Horseshoe Bend

Thunder Mountain Line ran scenic excursion trains out of Horseshoe Bend along the Payette River, following a route originally built in the early 1900s to haul mail, ore, and passengers between Horseshoe Bend and Nampa.

Kuna

Willows Edge Farm outside Kuna raises a mix you don't see paired often — Norwegian Fjord horses alongside Irish Dexter cattle, Jacob sheep, chickens, and pigs. The heritage and rare-breed focus makes a visit feel more like a working genetics program than a standard petting zoo. Agritourism visits and events are held on-site at the Deer Flat Road property.

Boise

Opening day typically lands in late May once the apple trees finish blooming, with the exact date posted each spring on Facebook.

Parma

Country Fresh Farm grows seedless table grapes and seedless watermelon on 1st Lane East in Parma, near the Oregon border in Idaho's Treasure Valley. Both are less common u-pick crops for the region, where most farms lean toward berries and orchard fruit rather than grapes and melons.

Fruitland

Kuna
