Orchards in Georgia

Burton Brooks Orchard Corporation

Barney, GA

Burton Brooks Orchard Corporation runs an orchard operation in Barney, a small Brooks County community in far south Georgia near the Florida line. South Georgia's growing season favors pecans and satsumas as much as traditional orchard fruit, though which crop this orchard grows isn't confirmed publicly.

Deep Roots Orchard

Deep Roots Orchard grows apples on trees that have stood on a Mobile Road hillside near McCaysville for more than 50 years, with u-pick running the first week of September through October, Wednesday to Sunday. The orchard is operated by The Folk Apothic, which also hosts seasonal events like a Summer Harvest Faire and Cider Days.

Hillcrest Orchard

Ellijay, GA

Hillcrest Orchard sits on Highway 52 East in Ellijay, the seat of Gilmer County and Georgia's self-declared Apple Capital. As an orchard, it fits squarely into the region's best-known crop and its fall visitor season.

Hillside Orchard Farms, Inc

Hillside Orchard Farms has made small-batch jams, syrups, and preserves from its own fruit for more than 30 years in Rabun County, along Old Highway 441. The retail market, in nearby Lakemont, is open Monday and Thursday through Saturday 9 AM to 5 PM and Sunday 1 to 5 PM, with u-pick apples and blackberries, a corn maze, hayrides, and a gem mine on site.

Lane Southern Orchards

Fort Valley, GA

Lane Southern Orchards has grown peaches and pecans outside Fort Valley since 1908, now spanning 3,000 acres of peach trees, 3,000 acres of pecan groves, and a six-acre strawberry patch. The farm market and café sit five minutes off I-75 at Exit 142, selling fresh fruit alongside jams, pies, and pound cakes baked on site. Seasonal tours run through the orchards and packing house.

Orchard Pond

Orchard Pond is a family-owned organic farm in Tallahassee, Florida, not Georgia despite this listing.

The farm stand at 400 Cedar Hill Road is open Wednesday through Saturday.

Pecan Orchard Plantation
