Do I have to take the Train or can I just walk into the orchards to pick fruit?
Your entrance fee allows you to ride our trains as often as you’d like during your visit. We do not allow patrons to walk on our train routes for safety reasons.
Do you have ATMs on your farm? Do you take credit cards?
We accept all major credit cards at the U–Pick Barn. We do not have any ATMs available and our concession stand is cash only.
Are there bathrooms available?
We do have portable bathrooms available at all main areas throughout our U–Pick operation.
What makes Belkin Family Lookout Farm different from other apple picking farms?
Unlike many other orchards, we strive to be # 1 in healthy, outdoor, family fun! When you come to Belkin Family Lookout Farm, be ready for a whole days worth of fun! Whether you’re riding our train, hanging out in the Children’s Play Area, checking out our seasonal petting zoo, enjoying a pony ride (or two!) or taking advantage of the many other family activities we offer, you’re sure to have a blast!
I saw that you offered a certain type of fruit on your website, but when I came it was picked out. What happened?
The schedules we post on this site (and in any advertisements or listings about us you may read) are all approximate; picking conditions can vary by a number of different factors, including the weather (bad weather earlier in the season, for instance, can affect the output, or heavy winds can knock fruit off the trees before you get here). On the other hand, we may have a perfect fall weekend that attracts many pickers, and the crop may be gone sooner than we anticipated. We suggest you always call ahead to see whats pickin’ today. Our U–Pick Hotline number is: 508-653-0653.
