Fall 2026 UpdateThe Farm Is Resting
Our U Pick season has come to an end, and for now, the farm is taking a little breather.
We’re stepping away from U Pick apples and reservations this season as we spend some time behind the scenes working on making cider the way we think it should be made.
We’re excited to take what we’ve learned growing fruit, caring for this land, and building something from the ground up and put it into a cider we’re really proud of.
Thank you for another incredible season at the farm. We’re so grateful for every family, friend, and visitor who came out to experience it with us this summer at Cal & Lily Flower Farm.
U Pick apple reservations are currently closed for the season.
Want to follow along? Sign up for our email newsletter and follow @gilchristorchard on Instagram and Facebook for updates, behind the scenes, and news about when our cider is ready.
We’ll see you back at the farm soon.
