Pick Your Own style!  Customers can walk to the apple orchard to pick their own apples on Saturdays and Sundays. Call for exact starting date.  First varieties to be picked: Galas & Honeycrisps.  Stay tuned for more varieties as the apples ripen. Three different sized bags are available and priced for families to enjoy! You might think that “an apple is an apple is an apple,” but you’d be amazed at how much better a fresh-from-the-field apple tastes than a grocery-store apple. When apples don’t sit on the shelf, they retain a crispness that just can’t come from the grocery store. And Triple B grows only the very best varieties, including Honeycrisp, Jonagold, Fuji and more. Take your pick of eating apples and baking apples – Triple B has both!
