Honeycrisp Weekend | You-Pick Apples at Wilson's Orchard & Farm in Des Moines, Iowa

Honeycrisp is an unparalleled apple variety for delivering juice, crunch, and sweet flavor. Once rejected by big apple growers and retailers alike, Honeycrisp's popularity grew from its fans at you-pick orchards throughout the Midwest. Come out and pick at your own pace; you'll find a wider variety of apples than you'd see at the grocery store, and maybe even discover a new favorite. To make things easier for families and groups, we’ll be offering both half-peck and full-peck sizes. ☀️ 🗣️ Stay tuned to this event for more updates including extra activities, expanded programming, and new produce varieties available! 🚨 If you are interested in attending this event, we recommend following our socials to get event updates-- in the coming weeks we will be announcing additional activities, programming, and information about which produce varieties are ripe! --------------------------------------------------------------- DES MOINES PRICING: You-Pick: 🍎 Apples* | $15 per 1⁄2 Peck | $24 per Full Peck | $80 per Bushel 🌸 Cut-Flowers | $14 per jar 🌱 Raspberries | $5 per pint | $50 per flat Pre-Picked Apples: 🍎 Apples* | $9 per 1⁄4 Peck | $16 per 1⁄2 Peck | $26 per Full Peck | $90 per Bushel 🌸 Cut-Flowers | $12 per bud vase | $24 per deluxe bouquet 🌱 Raspberries | $8 per pint | $80 per flat *Apple Peck Approximate Weight: 1⁄4 Peck = 1-3 lbs 1⁄2 Peck = 5-6 lbs 1 Peck = 10-12 lbs 1 Bushel = 42 lbs FALL ADMISSION (Required of guests ages 2+): 🧑‍🌾 Farm (to enter the you-pick patch) | Wed-Fri: $1 · Sat-Sun: $5 🛝 Farmyard (to enter our play areas) | Wed-Fri: $1 · Sat-Sun: $6 🚜 Tractor Rides (add-on) | Sat-Sun: $3 🌿 Weekend Packages (Farm + Farmyard) | Wed-Fri: $2 · Sat-Sun: $12 --------------------------------------------------------------- ACTIVITIES TO EXPECT: 🧺 You-Pick Produce 🛝 Farmyard Fun 🚜 Tractor rides 🍩 Apple Cider Donuts 🍨 Homemade Soft-Serve Ice Cream 🥤 Apple cider slushies 🍕 Farm-to-table pizza & food 🧃 Fresh-pressed cider 📸 Photo ops around the farm 🎶 Free Live Music featuring Soul Searchers!
