An outdoor adventure for the whole family!

Julian Farm & Orchard is an adorable family farm located in Wynola, Julian offering both delicious apple picking and an impressive pumpkin patch. They also own the Julian Mining Co where you will also find loads of fun for the family including sifting for gold and gems. Apple picking at Julian Farm & Orchard will give you Honeycrisp apples and Liberty apples but if you’re looking for that sweet, crunchy Granny Smith apple then head to their other location at Julian Mining Co.

This hot spot really offers it all including U-pick raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, and more tasty treats. U-pick prices are as follows - $6 per container, $1 admission. Guests are also welcome to picnic, walk the paths, see the farm animals including the opportunity to go to the goat corral with a guide for $3/person. Don’t miss visiting their farm store called “The Farmer's Wife” featuring Gina’s farmhouse and vintage décor, homemade candles, potpourri, goat's milk soap, and all things country!

Starting September 19 – October 25 this farm opens its pumpkin patch which is accompanied by all sorts of fun activities such as a hayride, cider press, farm animals, ax throw, tent store, seasonal backdrops, and more. If you are a festival fan, this is a great place to celebrate. Due to covid precautions, admission on weekends temporarily requires all guests to purchase 10 activity tickets for $10/person (2 and under free). These tickets can be used for all activities.

The farm is closed during the coldest months of the year, but the sister location, Julian Mining Co. is open year-round.
