This immersive journey takes you through every step of our harvest process. Your ticket unlocks full access to four unique farm experiences:
The Live Pack Line & Packaging Demo
Watch our high-speed sorting facility in action! You will see a live demonstration of how Scott’s Orchard carefully sorts, washes, and packages freshly picked apples for our Farm Store, local farmers markets, regional schools, and wholesale partners across the area.
The Giant Cold Storage Cooler Tour
Step inside the controlled, chilly environment of our commercial cold storage facility. Here, you’ll learn the scientific secrets behind how we halt the ripening process to keep our apples crisp, juicy, and snapping-fresh long after they are harvested from the trees.

Sit back, relax, and breathe in the fresh autumn air on a tractor-drawn wagon ride through our beautiful rows of trees. It’s a peaceful journey offering picturesque views and incredible photo opportunities.
