About This Farm
Sekapp Orchard is three miles from downtown Rochester, which makes it the most conveniently placed orchard in this region by a distance, and it opens seven days a week from July to December.
What You Can Pick
Apples, from Thursday 20 August, in the orchard's words "fresh from the trees of dozens of varieties".
Pumpkins at Pumpkinland in autumn.
What Else is Available
Fresh produce, pure honey, raspberry jam, rhubarb jelly and free-range eggs. The orchard also trades at the Rochester Farmers Market.
Good to Know
Hours change three times a year and the orchard publishes them as a table:
- 30 July to 31 October: 9am to 7pm, seven days
- 1 November to 31 December: 9am to 6pm, seven days
- 1 January to 31 July: by appointment only
No pets. Email sekapporchard@gmail.com, phone (507) 282-4544.
Pro tip: a seven o'clock close in October means you can pick after work, which almost no orchard in this region allows. And "by appointment only" for half the year is an invitation worth taking up in June if you want the place to yourself.
