U-Pick Apples

Pick Your Own Apples

Fresh and mouth-watering

Apple Picking is over for the 2023 season here.

You can visit many different farms in Oak Glen during the season, and have an amazing day even without apple picking – we are fond of our wine and s’mores evenings 4-6.

Thank you again for your generosity and excitement when you visit our farm. It wouldn’t be the fall without seeing families enjoy one of our favorite autumn traditions. 

Warm Regards, 

The O’Donnells

(For future reference – next season)

We ONLY release reservations one weekend at a time. We link to Eventbrite for ticketing and post those links on our Facebook, IG, and the “Events” tab of this site.

Our Apples

Stayman Winesap apples
Stayman Winesap
Ripens Mid to Late October

Our Stayman Winesaps are the main staples of our orchard and were planted in 1910. They have a juicy off-white flesh that is firm and provides a sweet but slightly tart, wine-like flavor. They are great for eating raw, but also perfect apples for pies and sauces.

Jonagold apples
Jonagold
Ripens Mid-September to Early October

The Jonagold is a cross between the crisp golden delicious and the blush-crimson Jonathan. They form a large sweet fruit with a thin skin. Jonagold is popular as a dessert apple.

Sweet Sixteen apples
Sweet Sixteen
Ripens Mid-September

Considered one of the best fresh-off-the-tree eating apples, it is extremely sweet with a richly complex flavor. Ripens in mid-September. The sweet sixteen has a flavor like vanilla with a hint of molasses and fine bourbon. A definite favorite!

Honeycrisp apples
Honeycrisp
Ripens Mid-September

A well-balanced, crisp apple known for extra juiciness due to its large cells. They are great for off-the-tree eating, but are also good for baking and our favorite, apple sauce.

Double Delicious apples
Double Delicious
Ripens Late September

The double delicious combines the golden delicious and the red delicious, creating a sweet, plump and juicy apple that is great for eating off the tree or baking.

Seek No Further apples
Seek No Further
Ripens Late September to Early October

This apple has a yellowish-white flesh that is crisp, tender and juicy. Considered a dessert apple, it has a highly distinctive taste and smell.

Liberty apples
Liberty
Ripens Mid to Late October

The liberty apple is derived from Macoun. It is a Macintosh-style apple with red skin and juicy flesh. The flavor is sharper than other Mac-related varieties with a sweet-tart flavor. They are great for eating raw but are also used for sautéed compotes and baking.

From Our Family To Yours

Enjoy the fruit of generational family farming

The apple trees on Willowbrook Apple Farm were planted in 1910 and have been lovingly cared for by generations of family farmers.  We invite you to come experience u-pick apples and u-press apple cider this fall at Willowbrook Apple Farm and savor just how amazing our Stayman-Winesap apples are fresh off the tree.  Surrounded by fall colors in the San Bernardino mountains, you can enjoy our locally grown food, freshly pressed apple cider, meet our farm animals, and experience small farm life in a picturesque setting. We open for berries and visits Labor Day Weekend, will launch apple picking when they are ripe, and our last day open for u-pick and u-press will be noted when the apples are gone. We look forward to seeing you and welcoming you to Willowbrook Apple Farm!
