When stepping into Hansel’s Orchard in North Yarmouth, Maine, you will quickly realize that this is a truly unique orchard. Our apple trees are trees that stories and songs are written about because they are large and wide. These are trees that the entire family can sit under and enjoy a picnic.

Hansel’s Orchard is a family run ‘Pick-Your-Own’ orchard that features McIntosh, Cortland and Macoun apple varieties. In early September the McIntosh apples are ripe for the picking. The Cortland ripen soon after and the Macoun apples are ready in late September. All of the varieties are plentiful through October.

When you arrive, you pick your bag or basket size according to how many apples you want. We know not everyone wants a bushel of apples at once so we offer a variety of sizes from a bushel, which is about 40 pounds, down to a quarter-peck which is about 3 pounds. We have picking poles to reach those desirable apples high in the trees if you don’t want to pick from the tree, we have freshly picked apples you can pick from an apple box.
