It’s a bit early to start thinking about apple pie, but the harvest came early this year! There are more than ten different apple varieties growing at Apple Annie’s Orchard in Wilcox and many are already ripe for the picking.
Spanning more than 125 acres, Apple Annie’s is easily the most well-known orchard in Arizona. It features tons of different seasonal crops, however, the 6,000+ apple trees definitely speak to what the owners are most passionate about.

U-Pick apples go for $1.49/pound, while those which have already been harvested are 20 cents more. Either way, the rates are an absolute steal for such high-quality fruit!

The only thing better than a crisp, freshly-picked apple is what can be made with it. High-quality ingredients make all the difference, giving each pie made at Apple Annie’s a nostalgic sweetness reminiscent of grandma’s cooking. Hand-crimped crusts and zero preservatives render these scrumptious desserts not only beautiful to look at but bursting with natural sweetness as well.

No matter how stuffed you are, leaving without at least a nibble of the orchard’s iconic apple cider donuts would be a travesty. Warm, flaky dough is sprinkled with just the right amount of cinnamon sugar, making for a taste sensation like nothing you’ve ever experienced.
