It's a full afternoon in one spot, and you don't need a reservation to enjoy the tasting room on most days.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of wine does Apple Barn Orchard & Winery produce?
The winery specializes in fruit wines made from apples and other orchard crops grown on the property. Expect sweeter, approachable styles that pair well with the baked goods sold in the on-site bakery.
Can I pick my own fruit and then taste the wines on the same visit?
Yes, that's actually one of the best ways to experience the farm. You can head out to the fields first, then cool off in the tasting room afterward with a wine flight.
Is Apple Barn a good outing for families with children?
It's one of the more family-friendly options in the Elkhorn area because of the pick-your-own farm and bakery. Kids can enjoy the orchard experience while adults sample wines.
Do I need a reservation to visit the tasting room?
Walk-ins are generally welcome, though calling ahead during peak fall harvest season is a smart idea. Weekends in October especially tend to draw larger crowds.
What's the best time of year to visit?
Fall is the peak season, when apple picking is in full swing and the bakery is stocked with seasonal items. Spring and summer visits are quieter and still offer wine tastings and a look at the growing orchard.
Can I buy wine to take home, and are there any gift options?
Bottles are available for purchase directly from the tasting room, and the bakery goods make great additions to a gift haul. It's a popular stop for people looking for locally made presents around the holidays.
