Terhune Orchards presents harvest weekends through October
Celebrate the fall harvest season with your family at Terhune Orchards’ popular, activity-packed fall festivals that run every weekend through Oct. 27, plus Columbus Day Monday, Oct. 14.
Pick you own fresh apples, pumpkins and gourds, take a tractor-drawn wagon ride, visit our “All About Apples” adventure barn, walk the farm trail, and enjoy farm fresh snacks and homemade country food.
Fall festival weekends at the farm offer plenty of special activities for children, including face painting, pumpkin painting, pony rides, and our popular cornstalk maze and hay bale maze.
Fall Festival weekends at Terhune Orchards wouldn’t be complete without live music. A different band performs every day for the thousands of visitors who come to enjoy all the fall activities at the farm.
All of our bands have a local connection including the popular Princeton group Riverside, which has been performing at our fall festivals for more than a decade and will return Sept. 29.
Fall Harvest Festival performances have become a celebrated tradition for area country and bluegrass fans. Local band play each weekend between noon and 4 p.m. through Oct. 27. This year’s line-up includes bluegrass, Dixie music and more.

Make sure to bring an appetite. At Pam’s down-home food tent we will be roasting a pig for pork sandwiches, and you will also find barbecued chicken, hot dogs, homemade salads and soup for sale.
Satisfy your cravings for dishes made with apples! We will have apple pies, apple muffins, apple bread, cider doughnuts and applesauce, and you can quench your thirst with cold cups of our own Terhune apple cider.
