The ranch also does pollination work, bee sales, and farm field trips.

Yucaipa

Riley's Apple Farm has worked the Oak Glen apple country above Yucaipa since 1979, growing more than 30 varieties, including several heirloom types you won't find in a grocery store. Visitors pick their own apples and berries, walk the orchard on a guided tour, or browse the country store for cider and preserves. Oak Glen Road runs thick with orchards this time of year — Riley's is one of the originals.

Snow-Line Orchard has grown apples in Oak Glen since 1898, when Isaac Ford first planted the land; Mert and Shirley Hudson have run it for more than 36 years since.

Stone Pantry Orchard sits on Oak Glen Road in Yucaipa's apple-growing highlands, open weekends from Labor Day through Thanksgiving for u-pick apples, pears, and wild blackberries. Visitors can press their own cider and buy it by the gallon or half-gallon. Weekday visits run by appointment only, and the orchard also hosts school tours, church retreats, and weddings.

Pumpkins come in for September and October, plus mountain trails and an annual apple butter festival.

Guldseth Cherry Orchard grows cherries near Cherry Valley, in the San Gorgonio Pass area of Riverside County — high enough in elevation to get the winter chill hours stone fruit needs, unlike most of inland Southern California.

Oak Glen

Willowbrook Apple Farm's Stayman Winesap trees went into the ground in 1910, making them well over a century old and still bearing fruit. Visitors pick apples and berries by hand, press their own cider, and take a tractor ride through the orchard rows against the San Bernardino Mountains. Caramel apples and farm animals round out the visit.

Oak Glen

Riley's Farm has grown heritage apples on 760 acres in Oak Glen since 1986, alongside strawberries, cherries, peaches, pears, and pumpkins that ripen from April through November. The family-run orchard pairs pick-your-own fruit with living-history programs, dinner theater, group banquets, and period-costumed overnight stays, making it as much a working farm as a history destination.

Beaumont

This Beaumont u-pick orchard, formerly known as Wohlgemuth's and now called BR Organic Cherry Orchard, grows mostly Rainier cherries — prized for lower acidity and higher sugar content than standard sweet cherry varieties. The orchard has operated organically from the same Eleventh Street property for years and is worth a call ahead before visiting.

Stetson Creek Ranch is on Hill Ranch Road near Placentia, zip 92870, in northern Orange County. This part of the county still holds pockets of horse property and small ranches in the hills above the developed flatland, remnants of the citrus-and-cattle era before suburban growth.
