This Charming Little Farm Is The Best Kept Secret In South Dakota

There’s nothing like biting into a crisp fall apple, especially one that you’ve just picked yourself. Fall is right around the corner, and this little family-owned orchard will be opening in just a couple weeks. Make plans now to visit!

Country Apple Orchard was established in 1984. It's located near Sioux Falls, at 27249 SD Highway 115 in Harrisburg.

The orchard has around 6,000 apple trees.

The trees here produce 13 varieties of apples!

Bring your kids and make some apple picking memories they'll never forget.

On weekends, the little ones will enjoy a fun train ride.

Pony rides are also offered on weekends.

Choose your Halloween pumpkin at the orchard. They plant seven acres, so there's plenty to choose from.

Get a treat at the Country Store. The apple crisp with ice cream is sublime.

You definitely need a caramel apple.

On weekends, you can get some lunch at Big O's Orchard BBQ.

Once you get a whiff of this BBQ goodness, you'll be placing your order.

Watch the calendar for Country Apple Orchard's events and festivals.

If you don't want to pick your own, you can buy some fresh-picked, bagged apples in the Country Store.

The Country Apple Orchard usually opens for the season on Labor Day weekend.

Keep up on the latest happenings through the orchard’s Facebook page, and visit their website for more details.
