About This Farm
Rasch Cherry & Apple Market on 40th Avenue at Conklin runs golf carts, which it calls Cherry-ots, out into the orchard. That solves the problem every cherry farm has, which is that the good fruit is a long walk from the car park.
What You Can Pick
- Sweet and tart cherries - from the last week of June to about the middle of July
- Apples - September and October
- Flowers - August and September
What Else is Available
- Corn maze - August and September
- Sunflower trail - September
- Haunted maze and pumpkin patch - October
- Barn market and a custom bakery, open year round
Good to Know
Two quite different timetables. In cherry season the market is open 8am to 8pm Monday to Saturday and noon to 5pm Sunday. From August to October it is weekends only, 10am to 6pm Saturday and noon to 5pm Sunday.
Payment is unusually broad: EBT Bridge Card, Senior Fresh Project, cash, cheque and cards, with a fee on credit.
Pro tip: the Cherry-ot carts also make this one of the few orchards in the region a person who cannot walk far can actually pick at.
