The pears this year have been amazing! Unfortunately, they are also done for this year. But apples are still available and delicious! We have Honey Crisp, Zestar!, Chestnut Crabapples, and Haralson available to either pick your own or purchase prebagged. Visit our self serve stand during the week and pay with cash, check or PayPal…or come on the weekends when the stand is staffed and can accept cards.

OPENING SATURDAY, AUGUST 31
Good news...we are opening Saturday, August 31! It's been a really weird year weather wise, which has been a big challenge. But by opening we will have pears and Zestar! apples available for either u-pick or prebagged purchase. As many of you remember from last year, the pears are amazing, and a lot of you have asked about them. And Zestar! is not as well known as Honey Crisp, but they are our family's favorite apple...sweet and so juicy. If you haven't tried them, we encourage you to do so. They make wonderful applesauce, apple crisp, apple pie, apple cake...anything you can think of.
Honey Crisp, Haralson, and Chestnut Crabapples will be available later in the season...we are estimating mid September. We will post when they are ready, so keep an eye out for that coming up.
Our hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. 7 days a week. Several wagons are available for those of you with little ones. Come to enjoy the beautiful rolling hills and peacefulness of our orchard or bring the kids out for a fun time picking their own apples. Kids have a blast, and we love hearing them enjoy themselves.
Directions are available on our website irishmountainorchard.com. See you soon!
