Sm’Apples U-Pick Orchard, Ferndale
We just happened upon Sm’Apples, a family-run U-pick orchard in Ferndale, and it looks like a good one! U-pick opens Aug. 30, 2025, with the first available varieties being Red Gravenstein and Akane — that’s pronounced “uh-KAHN-ee.” Next up will be family favorites Honeycrisp and Jonagold. This year they are also offering apple cider and local, unfiltered honey.
Get pickin’: Apple varieties, season dates, orchard hours and pricing are typically listed on the website. The orchard’s open hours are listed as Monday–Saturday, 9 a.m.–dark.
