Latest news at Allen's Orchard in Marion, Iowa

STOP in the Allen’s Store BEFORE you head out the orchard to pick.

Season Reminders:

1. The apples were ready early this year – if you would like to U-pick yet this month (October 2021) – please do not wait till the very end of the month.
2. Honeycrisp apples come and go quite quickly and are a September apple. They are all gone šŸ™
3. The varieties that remain right now are more on the tart and crispy end of the spectrum. They are all good for baking, eating, saucing, making butter, and frankly just good for everything.
4. At this time in the season if you are looking for something specific, please let us know and we will do our best to help. The honest truth is that there may not be any of that variety left right now. But we will check. Thank you in advance for your patience and kindness.

  • We had a lot of fun picking apples. The donuts were delicious. We bought some apple cherry butter. It's the best apple butter I've ever had!

  • A group of 5 of us went to Allen's yesterday for Apple picking, besides the weather being a bit humid, it couldn't have been more perfect. We all had an apple slushie, which were amazing!!!! We will definitely be back for the honeycrisps!!!

  • I went here with my 14 month old and some friends today. Very kid friendly, wonderful staff and delicious apples! The guy who did the hay-rack ride and narrated it, could tell he put lots of time into it! Very enjoyable place! Will definitely be going back!

  • Went here last year for my sons 4th birthday and it was so nice! Not too far from town, yet still feels like a great get away with the Family. We enjoyed picking the apples and eating all the special treats from the store!

  • The apple donuts were 2/3 gone by the time we got home, and my seven year old swears the apple slushies will "save the government." A great "date" with my little guy.
