Pick Apples And Sample Apple Cider And Donuts At Windy Hill Orchard And Cider Mill In South Carolina
One of the very best things about the fall season? Apple cider donuts! Get your fill of these delightful treats with a visit to Windy Hill Orchard and Cider Mill in York, South Carolina. Just wait until you see everything this orchard and cider mill has in store for the fall 2021 season…
Located pretty much equal distance from both interstates 85 and 77 in the Piedmont of the state, Windy Hill makes for a very nice and easy day trip to scarf down some warm and tasty donuts along with some fresh craft hard ciders, and more.
The orchard and mill recently opened up again for the 2021 season and now is a great time to check out their offerings. Have a glass of fresh cider — and good luck eating only ONE donut...
Order a flight with several flavors you can't live without. And don't forget the donuts! You can buy as many as you can possibly eat, or really load up and have some to bring home, too.
The donut making team is busy every day Windy Hill is open to the public, mixing, cutting, and cooking up tray after tray of warm, apple cider donuts. Get them plain or rubbed with cinnamon sugar. Yum!
You can also stock up on some fresh cider to bring home. Why not enjoy these flavors long after the road trip is over? These bottles also make nice gifts, too!
Don't forget to come back after apple picking season officially opens on September 4th — that's the Saturday before Labor Day if you're adding this to your calendar. If you want to participate in the u-pick apple days, you'll need to make a reservation ahead of time.
It's absolutely worth it to have fresh apples in the house. Make your own apple pies, apple turnovers, and even try your hand at making your own hard cider, if you dare.
You can also look forward to live music on many weekends. See the full line up for the season here.
