Offering some of the most breathtaking views of Litchfield County, the Hill Top Orchard is the perfect fall destination for your entire family, group or organization to experience all a true New England orchard has to offer. In addition to apple picking, other activities & amenities include:

  • Pumpkin Picking
  • Exploring the Hill Top Corn Maze
  • Orchard hay rides (possibly)
  • Incredible fall foliage
  • Festive bon fire pit
  • Tasty grilled cheeses and soups from the Hill Top Snack Shack

Pick Your Own Pumpkins typically begins late-September and continues through October.  Grab a wagon and search the fields for a variety of pumpkins including large face pumpkins perfect for carving, smaller sugar pumpkins great for baking, and stackable pumpkins for outstanding decorations.

Please Note:

Most Weekend Parking will be directed to The Hill Top Orchard.  A suggested $5 parking fee will be collected at the gate.  This year, due to CO-VID, we will not offer bussing from the Farm stand to the Hilltop location.  However, we will be offering a Hilltop Hike which is a great way to explore the beauty of the farm and get some bonus exercise.  If you plan on opting for the hike please remember that the terrain is rocky in some spots and there is one rather steep hill you’ll have to climb.  Wear appropriate footwear, bring a wagon (appropriate for rougher terrain) to cart your apples back down the hill in, and if bringing a stroller, be sure that it too can handle rougher terrain.  Thanks!
