Labor Day weekend means AppleFest at Jackson’s. Sweet, crisp fall apples and everything that goes with them are the highlight of the day. That means Fresh Apple Cider, Cider Slushes, Fried Pies, Caramel Apples plus Peach Ice Cream and lots more! Plenty of children’s activities too.
2024 AppleFest – Labor Day Weekend | Saturday, August 31 – Monday, September 2
Saturday through Monday, sweet, crisp fall apples and everything that goes with them are the highlight of the day. Not only are we picking some of your favorite fall apples . . . usually Jonathan, Golden Delicious, Gala & Fuji but we will be giving you free tastes of many of our other apple products like our butters, sauces, salsas and more!
We’ll be making our first batch of new season Apple Cider. Fresh squeezed & fresh made . . . how can you resist! Another first of the season is caramel apples. We’ll be dipping and serving them in the concession stand starting this weekend. But there is plenty more like fried apple & peach pies, cider slushes, ice cream and more.
Also the playground is open ($3 ages 4-21) and the goats and other animals can’t wait to see you!
If the weather cooperates we normally try to have a special weekend of Pick-Your-Own apples priced by the pound or by the peck. See the attachment for updated information or go to this link: https://jacksonsorchard.com/partner/pick-your-own-apples/
