Hillcrest Orchards Apple Picking in Ellijay GA

Hillcrest OrchardsOnly 90 minutes from Atlanta, you can visit Hillcrest Orchards and farmers market in Ellijay, Georgia. Hillcrest is family owned and operated and offers loads of fun for kids, adults and seniors. You can pick your own apples during the "Apple Pickin' Jubilee", which takes place the last three weekends in September (12, 13, 19, 20, 26 and 27th) and every weekend in October from 9:00am until 6:00pm. The children (and adults) can even milk a cow, watch live pig races, visit the petting farm, take a wagon ride through the orchard, visit the Moonshine Museum and watch live bands and cloggers on the Hillcrest Stage. A playground and giant slide are also located on the Hillcrest property, so the kids will have a grand time. A "Barney & Bo" show featuring Barney the talking bull is also part of the entertainment. Admission for the "Apple Pickin' Jubilee" is $5/person and an additional $3/person for the Petting Farm.
Hillcrest Orchards also has a fabulous bakery and ice cream parlor for homemade fried apple pies, apple cider, doughnuts, apple fritters, homemade ice cream and fudge. So come hungry!
