Lawrence Farms Orchards

Lawrence Farms Orchards at Newburgh picks the longest fruit list in this region and adds a vegetable list nearly as long, across a season running from Memorial Day weekend to the end of October.

What You Can Pick

• Strawberries, cherries and apricots - early summer
• Peaches, plums and pears - through the summer
• Apples and pumpkins - autumn
• Vegetables - sweet corn, broccoli, aubergine, tomatoes, green beans, kale, collard greens, peppers, cucumbers, kohlrabi, cabbage, bok choy and courgette

What Else is Available

A farm market with jams, jellies, honey, syrups and salsas, a farm bar, tractor-pulled wagon rides and an information booth.

Good to Know

Open June to October, 9am to 4pm daily. 4pm is the last entry for picking and the farm itself closes at 5pm.

Pro tip: apricots are the rarest thing on this list. They ripen in a ten-day window in midsummer, they bruise if you look at them, and almost nowhere in the Hudson Valley lets the public near them.
