Apple Orchards Around Town Are in Sea
September 9, 2024
September marks the beginning of apple harvesting in Minnesota.
According to the University of Minnesota, most apple varieties in Minnesota should be harvested during the month of September. The East Metro is chock-full of apple orchards, offering pick-your-own apples, sweet treats and more.
Aamodt’s Apple Farm is a go-to for many locals due to its proximity to Woodbury. Offering nearly 25 varieties throughout August to December (17 of those being available in September!), Aamodt’s offers pick-your-own apples, fresh homemade apple pie, local honey and more in its Apple Barn and Bakery. Head over next door to Saint Croix Vineyards and Thor’s Hard Cider for award-winning cold-climate wines and hard cider. 6428 Manning Ave., Stillwater; 651.439.3127; aamodtsapplefarm.com
