Royal Oak Farm Orchard

About

Royal Oak Farm Orchard in Harvard is a family-run orchard with about 30 apple varieties, about 15 minutes south of Lake Geneva. Instead of one wristband price, Royal Oak charges per activity: apple picking includes a quarter-peck bag, and the Amaze ‘N Apples tree maze, orchard tours and rides are priced separately. The playground, petting zoo, barns, bakery and gift shop are free to enter. The bakery sells apple cider donuts and fudge, and the country kitchen serves lunch. The farm also has U-cut flowers and summer raspberry picking.

  • Children 3 and under enter the orchard free but do not get a bag.
  • No pets, outside food or alcohol are allowed on the farm.
