Shelburne

Kenburn Orchards has farmed the same land along the Mohawk Trail in Shelburne for close to a century. The family operation combines pick-your-own blueberries in late summer with a choose-and-cut Christmas tree lot in December, plus a small bed and breakfast on the property. This listing's state field says Alabama; the farm is actually in Franklin County, Massachusetts.

Shelburne Falls

Shelburne Falls

Apex Orchards has grown fruit on this Shelburne Falls hillside since 1946, on land farmed since 1828, and the variety list runs past apples into peaches, nectarines, apricots, pears, Asian pears, quince, blueberries, and table grapes. Pick-your-own apples run mid-September through October, with a 50-mile view from the orchard rows. The farm store stays open daily August through December, and fresh donuts show up on weekends only.

Shelburne

Mohawk Orchards has run as a pick-your-own operation on the Mohawk Trail in Shelburne Falls since 1984. It's a small operation — a couple of people work the orchard — so hours can shift with the harvest and weather. Call ahead before driving out. The orchard sits along Colrain Road, not far from Kenburn Orchards, a separate farm that visitors sometimes confuse it with.

Colrain

Pine Hill Orchards farms more than 80 acres in the hills above Colrain, growing apples, peaches, plums, and blueberries alongside fall pumpkins. The farm store stays open daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., pressing its own cider and baking pies and bread on site. A deli counter slices Boar's Head meats and cheeses to order for grinders and sandwiches. It's a working farm first — the food service grew up around what they already grow.

Ashfield

Bear Swamp Orchard grew from 5 to about 60 apple varieties on 6 certified-organic acres in Ashfield after opening in 2006. It made apple brandy and hard ciders with wild-yeast fermentation only, no sulfites or filtering, and ran U-pick apples each fall alongside vinegar, jams, and maple syrup. The orchard has since closed; owners announced the closure on Instagram, thanking customers for their support.
