Cherry Hill Orchards

The hike from the city is worth it to get to this mega-authentic orchard that is Lancaster’s largest. Ripe for the picking: Rambo, Cortland, Gold Delicious, Fortune and Jonagold varieties, among others—though you’ll want to act fast once picking begins for any variety, as most have a 10-day turnover. A picturesque picking experience, it’s also an environmentally sound one: While plucking nature’s candy from those branches, take a gander at one of the farm’s 750 solar panels in the distance.
