Picking Policies

At Carter Mountain Orchard

Check In

Before picking, you must check in with orchard staff. Everyone in your group must check in at the same time.

We’ll provide picking instructions, let you know what and where to pick (availability varies by day), and update you on everything going on that day!

Pre-pay for PYO

Before picking, you’ll pre-pay by container size.

Guests must purchase at least one container for every 2-3 people picking fruit. You may fill your container only once.
