7. Stribling Orchard – Markham, Virginia
Stribling Orchard in Markham, Virginia offers a few varieties of apples that aren’t as common farther north – like Stayman, York, and Nittany. Their apple orchard stretches for 30 acres, and if you make it there in the late summer or earlier in the fall, they’ll still have peaches that you can harvest as well!
August and early September are prime time for both apples and peaches. Late in the year, you’ll be more likely to find apple varieties like Rome, Granny Smith, and York. Don’t miss out on their amazing baked goods and succulent preserves, which can also be purchased from their website.
