Raven Hill Orchard, Julian

Fresh pickin'
It's September! That means time for apple picking here in San Diego. One of our favorite places to pick apples is Raven Hill Orchard in Julian. Just off of Highway 78 and Wynola Road, the orchard has an added treat of some really interesting sculptures by artist and orchard owner Patrick Brady.

We enjoyed picking some Gravenstein, which we were told were great for juicing, but we found were just as great to eat right off the tree. We'll be making some pies with some of the ones we picked very soon!
Jona apples
The orchard is open everyday til 5. You purchase a bag for $10 and pick the apples which are ready. It's located at 1284 Julian Orchards Dr, Julian. You take the Wynola Rd turn from the 78.

While there, we stopped by Wynola Pizza Express for some delicious lunch and played on the big rocks out back. There's lots of other great places in the area as well that you might like to check out while there.


Have fun picking!
