It's only open weekends, Saturday 10 to 5 and Sunday 11 to 4, closed the rest of the week. Woodstock's other orchards lean bigger; this one stays a straightforward family farm.

Open Monday through Saturday 10 to 4, Sunday noon to 4.

Grace Farm Studios is listed on Franklinville Road in Woodstock, McHenry County. No verifiable website or business listing was found to confirm what the studio offers.

Woodstock

Lang's Orchard runs u-pick apples on Secor Road outside Woodstock, weather permitting — a cold snap during spring flowering has forced the orchard to sit out entire seasons rather than sell an off crop. The farm posts real-time picking updates on Facebook and keeps a small on-site store running when the trees cooperate.

Woodstock

McCann Berry Farm closed permanently after the 2026 season, ending 41 years of pick-your-own blueberries northeast of Woodstock. Bob and Mary McCann planted their first strawberry crop in 1982 and later shifted the farm's focus to blueberries, picked Wednesdays and Saturdays each July. The McCanns have retired; this listing remains for the record.

Union

Prairie Sky Orchard has been growing apples on Union Road since 1991, when the current owners turned five empty acres into what's now roughly 2,800 dwarf trees across 14 varieties. Pick your own or buy pre-packaged, then stop at the barn store for cider donuts, jams, salsas, and u-bake pies. Asian pears and raspberries round out the harvest, and a weekend food kiosk adds hot dogs and pulled pork.

Huntley

A Huntley farm market that's sold locally grown pumpkins and fall produce for more than 40 years across two nearby locations, with the u-pick patch three miles west of the market. Every pumpkin is $8 regardless of size, admission and parking are free, and weekends bring hayrides and cider donuts.

Marengo

Grizzy's Pumpkins sells pumpkins from a farm at the corner of Route 20 and Coral Road outside Marengo, in Coral Township. It turns up in local farm directories and a scattering of social posts from visitors, but runs without a dedicated website. Worth a call ahead to check what's picked and ready.

Davidson's Giant Pumpkins has grown genuine oversized pumpkins outside Harvard for more than 45 seasons, alongside regular jack-o'-lanterns and oddly shaped squash. Admission and parking are free, with pricing running roughly $1 to $15 depending on size.

McHnery

Stade's Farm & Market works 2,200 acres of corn, soybeans, strawberries, and raspberries in McHenry County, about 50 miles northwest of Chicago. The market stays open daily from May through Halloween with pick-your-own produce, a bakery known for apple cider donuts, and Townsend Meats & Eggs. A 30-acre pumpkin patch and 11,000-tree apple orchard round out the fall season.

Natural Farm Stand sells produce on Route 173 outside Richmond, near the Wisconsin border in McHenry County. No independent website or listing turned up online, so current offerings and stand hours are best confirmed directly.

Spring Grove

Richardson Adventure Farm is home to what it bills as the world's largest corn maze — 28 acres and 10.4 miles of trails cut into a cornfield outside Spring Grove. Beyond the maze, the farm runs a 50-foot tube slide, an observation tower, a train, a carousel, and a zip line, plus group picnic areas that hold up to 100 people. It's less a farm stand than a full day-trip destination.

This listing gives only a Zarnstorff Road address in the 60071 zip code near Richmond, with no matching business name turning up in local directories or online records. It reads as a small family farm rather than a commercial operation, but nothing further can be confirmed.

Harvard

Countryside Christmas is a seasonal choose-and-cut Christmas tree operation on Lilja Road outside Harvard, in a stretch of McHenry County known for its tree farms. Independent detail beyond its listing as a u-pick agritourism stop is limited online, so call ahead for current tree varieties and weekend hours before making the drive.

Village of Bloomfield

Hafs Road Orchard sells apples, fresh-pressed cider, and hand-dipped caramel apples from its stand on Hafs Road, about seven miles east of Lake Geneva in Walworth County.

Volo

A family-owned greenhouse in Volo that grows its own annuals on-site and sells them alongside general gardening supplies. It's a straightforward neighborhood plant shop, not an event destination.

Harvard

Freedom Organix is a USDA-certified organic farm outside Harvard running a year-round CSA, with shares of fruit, vegetables, meat, eggs, herbs, and cut flowers delivered through neighborhood pickup points. Half-share options suit smaller households, and the farm opens select fields for u-pick snap peas and tomatoes in season.

Lake Geneva

A zipline and aerial adventure course on East Townline Road in Lake Geneva, the resort town in Walworth County. Expect elevated ropes elements and ziplines through the trees rather than crops. Book ahead for a time slot.

Wauconda

The Wauconda Area Chamber of Commerce represents more than 300 businesses across Wauconda, Island Lake, Lakemoor, and Volo, working on local economic development rather than farming itself. It's the group residents contact for area business directories and community event coordination. Offices are at 118 S. Main Street, Suite 4, in downtown Wauconda.

Garden Prairie

Susie's Garden Patch runs a produce stand on US Highway 20 in Garden Prairie, selling what's in season straight off the farm. It's a small, family-run operation without much of a web presence — the kind of stand you find by driving past it, not by searching for it online.

Delavan

A Vegas-style horse show paired with Animal Gardens, a walk-through petting zoo, on Highway 50 between Delavan and Lake Geneva. Trained horses of several breeds perform in an indoor theater year-round, while the animal park runs seasonally from May through October. Performers have worked shows for Disney, Ringling Bros., and Universal. Reach the box office at 262-728-8200 or [email protected].

Barrington

This Old Sutton Road address in Barrington was once listed as a pumpkin patch, but current records tie the property to a construction business rather than an active farm stand. Whether pumpkin picking still happens here couldn't be confirmed.

Delavan

An equestrian ranch outside Delavan in Walworth County, known for guided horseback trail rides and horse-drawn wagon and sleigh rides through the seasons. The ranch also kept farm animals for visitors. Its former website is no longer active, so current hours and booking should be confirmed directly.

Sycamore

Plank Rd Orchard grows 16 apple varieties, from early Gala to late-season Honeycrisp, and lets visitors pick their own during harvest. The farm store fills in around the apples with baked goods, honey, and small-batch jams and jellies. It's a straightforward u-pick operation on Plank Road outside Sycamore, doing what an orchard does well without much else attached.

Lake Villa

Susanna Farms is a working equine facility in Lake Villa built around therapeutic riding rather than produce or pumpkins.

Mundelein

SunBerry Orchard grows roughly 150 apple varieties on its Mundelein property, with u-pick apple season running September through October alongside fresh cider, baked goods, and a petting zoo.

Saint Charles

Norton's Produce farms a stretch of Illinois Route 64 in Saint Charles, best known regionally for its fall corn maze alongside u-pick produce. It shows up on Chicago-area corn maze guides as one of the longer-running mazes in the Fox Valley, with the produce stand running through the growing season before the maze takes over each autumn. Confirm hours before driving out, since small roadside farms shift with the harvest.

Poplar Grove

Beaver Creek Gardens operates in Poplar Grove, in Boone County's stretch of small nurseries and garden centers. No current web listing was found describing current stock or hours. Call ahead to confirm before visiting.

Poplar Grove

Burlington

Burge Family Farm is based in Burlington, a Racine County city in the rolling farm country of southeastern Wisconsin. The listing gives little beyond the family name and an East State Street location, and there's not much online. Call ahead or check locally to learn what the farm grows and whether it welcomes visitors.

Sycamore Pumpkin Patch ran u-pick pumpkins on Quigley Road for about a decade before closing in 2004. The 41-acre property has since gone back to farmland, and pumpkin seekers in DeKalb County now head to the Sycamore Pumpkin Festival downtown or nearby farms like Sugar Grove Pumpkin Farm instead.

Kingston

UP Berries grows raspberries on Lanan Road outside Kingston as a pick-your-own operation, with visitors picking straight from the canes and paying by the pound. The farm recommends bringing reusable bags rather than plastic. It's a straightforward, single-crop farm — no frills, just raspberry rows and a scale.

Poplar Grove

Bull Run Maze cuts a corn maze through its Poplar Grove fields every fall, backed by pumpkin picking, pig races, and doughnuts for the drive out from Rockford or Belvidere. It's a family-owned operation built around the maze itself rather than a long list of rides — expect to lose a few hours between the rows before finding your way back out.

Elburn

Shady Hill Gardens built a national reputation over more than 30 years as a specialist grower of geraniums and pelargoniums, shipping mail-order plants out of the Chicago area. The operation relocated to Elburn in 2007 under new family ownership and now runs alongside a broader nursery business — bedding plants, herbs, hanging baskets — with geraniums still the specialty that built the name.
