Andy's Orchard - Morgan Hill, California

Went there for cherry tasting on a Sunday. The place was packed before it even opened. Tickets were $25 per person, and they had at least 20 different types of cherries that you could taste. They also let us pick out our own cherries from the orchard, though the thing that I didn't like is that there was no easy way of knowing where the different types of cherries were. I jotted down the names of the cherries that I liked, but I couldn't find some of them in their orchard, and some were not actually from their orchard either. That was a bummer. Thankfully, the cost of self picked cherries was only $4.50 per lbs

Cherries were sweets but we decided to explore more. Would love to come back and visit again next time. They have dogs walking on the road sometimes so be careful when driving, parking and backing up.

Nice locally owned rustic store. They sell a variety of dryer fruits, chocolate, pies and seasonal fruits and veggies. I enjoy visiting the place every month. Prices are expensive.

Went at 9.30 am on the sunday 18th June and we had booking for 4 people. The orchard opens at 10 am and there were already people lined up. We requestes for car parking inside orchard as my wife has walking disability they said they can help if there is sticker . However they offered her chair to sit till orchard opens and agreed to drop her back. Aeiing my wife's condition not one many of their staff/ volunteer came forward to help particularly a family of Marcus the young boy who drove the tractor with trailer which can seat 10 people disabled.
The tour starts with tasting if the fruit and this time of the year it was cherry. They had 35 varities of cherry and it wa wonderfully organised with name board sticker on each of them and you are given a tissue and paper plate for discarding the seeds and they have kept a small basket to discord the seeds as you taste . It was really a wonderful experience
After tasting my wife and I with my daughter and grand daughter and couple of other families toolk the tractor and Marcus the boy took us to the orchard and explained the different cherries and took us around and he was very patient and was excellent.
The cheerries were sweet some were sour and sweet and most of them were excellent.
There was peacock in the orchard .
There were 2 rest rooms
On the tour you are given buckets to collect the fruit and you weigh them and pay and take it home . The cherry was given at USD 4.50 per LBS.
The fruit tasting and picking was excellent experience and special kudos to all the staff and specially to Marcus and his family for helping us and said that having come all the way from India we should go to the orchard understanding my wife's disability

Andy's is a gem of Morgan Hill. You're sure to find some of the best fruit you've ever tasted. Great place to bring kids - highly recommend the tasting events - buy tickets mid to late May. 500+ guests and tickets sell out quick. The store onsite is quaint with prices that can't be beat.

Sweet Sweet Cherries 🍒🍒
First time visiting Andy's Orchard and WOW so adorable. Really nice place to take the family or a friend. Walk around tasting and then picking sweet fruit. I definitely want to come back when the Stone fruit is ready.
Check them out. 🍒🍒

Do orchards still exist in the The Valley of Heart's Delight? Though every orchard from the South Bay to the North Bay have all but disappeared there are still a few if you know where to look.

Andy's Orchard is probably the best stone fruit orchard in the Bay Area. The host various events throughout the year were you can taste seasonal fresh and dried fruit. During the summer months they hold regular events were you can pick fruit from their orchard and purchase what you pick.

They have a variety of unique and heirloom variety stone fruits during the summer months. They will even provide you with a calendar of when to expect certain variety of fruits during the season. They also have other fruits during year including figs, cherries, and persimmons. They will also have a small selection of seasonal vegetables. They have a robust section of "ugly fruit" that taste perfectly fine aside from being ugly or bruised. The ugly fruit is usually priced super cheap at 1$/lb.

In my weekly visits to Andy's I maybe had one fruit that wasn't up to par! While it is usually hit or miss when buying fruit at a conventional store you can expect perfectly ripe and in season fruit at Andy's. You can find delicious eats year round at Andy's due to the fact that they sell a large selection of dried fruits that they dry at the orchard. You can find dried stone fruits year round and some specialty items seasonally. You can get sugar plums and dried persimmons in the winter months and through the new year.

If you're looking for one of the best orchards in the Bay Area Andy's may be your best bet at seeing what once filled the valley.

Super range of delicious to unusual fruit, lots of chocolate and local bakery and honey treats.
Pawpaws are in season late Oct-early Dec. Love their dried stone fruits - by variety!!!
