Doe Orchards - Harvard, MA 
Hello,
Can I bring my dog to the orchard to go picking?
Yes you can. We allow dogs kept on a leash and cleaned up after.
Hi, will you be open on Colombus Day?
We will be open from 10-5.
Hi! What U-pick apples are available if we come tomorrow?
Thanks!
For PYO they are Empire, Cortland, Granny Smith, and Delicious. There are Macs, Macouns, Jonagold and Fuji as well, they’re just a little harder to find.
are you open sunday? for a large group(over 100)
Hi, We are open daily 10-5. Sorry to say we can’t assure you that there will be parking for your group. We are a smaller orchard (no frills) or large parking fields.
Hello there! Hoping to come and do some picking this coming Monday, 10/14. Do you still have Honeycrisp available in the orchard?
Hi! We started picking Honeycrisp more than a month ago and they are pretty much gone from the trees. We have them at the stand. You will find everything else in good numbers.
When to start pick up Fuji apple
Let me know
Fuji apples need a little more time on the trees. A week maybe!
Do I need to make a reservation to go Apple picking?
No reservation if you are a family or group less than 8 people.
Hi you still have honey crisp
Our Honeycrisp apples are at the stand but there are none on the trees. It was a very small crop due to weather issues.
what is your pricing for apples?
For Pick Your Own 1 peck is $18.00, 1/2 bushel is $34.00.
Do you still allow dogs for apple picking?
Yes, on a leash at all times ad cleaned up after.
I’m writing on 11/20 and wondering if you have any apples still picking? I know it’s super late but it’s been such a weird autumn… Thanks, Julie
Hi Julie, night time temperatures have been down in the 20s repeatedly so anything left on the trees is no good now. You aren’t the only one one still wondering about picking!
When will Macoun apples be ready this year?
We are expecting to be picking in early October.
On what date does your season for apple picking end?
Most varieties will be picked by the end of this weekend.
