This season
In the farm's own words: "UPICK 2026: WILL RESUME IN JULY WITH BLUEBERRIES FOLLOWED BY UPICK APPLE SEASON IN AUGUST", and "OUR SEASON WILL RESUME END OF AUGUST, WATCH FOR ANNOUNCEMENTS." Picking usually runs to late October or early November. The farm asks people to ignore the hours Google shows for it.

About This Farm
Clark Farms at Bushy Hill Orchard at Granby runs its picking from a window on the porch and a tractor to the trees, and is refreshingly rude about Google.
What You Can Pick
- Blueberries - from July
- Apples - from August, "usually pick until late October/Early November"
In the farm's own words: "UPICK 2026: WILL RESUME IN JULY WITH BLUEBERRIES FOLLOWED BY UPICK APPLE SEASON IN AUGUST."
How Picking Works
"Check in at our UPICK apple window on porch, grab a bag and ticket for tractor (there is NO walking to orchard). Come back to the farm and grab some donuts, ice cream, cider, slushies, visit our cafe (Saturday/Sunday 9-4:30) for a bite to eat."
What Else is Available
A cafe serving breakfast at weekends 9am to 1pm, a cidery, greenhouses, a corn maze with tickets at $18 in advance and $22 at the door, and events including Breakfast with Santa and Breakfast with the Easter Bunny.
Good to Know
The farm's own warning, and it is worth heeding: "Please ignore GOOGLE hours as they don't always reflect the correct times (we can't control this)."
Closed January to March.
Pro tip: there is no walking to the orchard, only the tractor, so the picking runs on the tractor's timetable rather than yours. Arrive early in the day if you want a full field rather than a queue for the next trailer.
