Apple picking in Quebec: the orchards where fall tastes best

Apple season starts in late August and runs into October: it’s the perfect fall activity to please everyone, from toddlers to grandparents. Take photos in the rows, taste varieties straight from the tree, leave with a bag for Sunday’s apple crisp, and often a tractor ride, a corn maze or a mini-farm thrown in. This guide brings together 61 pick-your-own orchards in Quebec, each with the venue’s listing, varieties and picking dates.

Tips: on sunny September weekends, arrive early; call or check the listing that morning, since open rows change with the ripeness of the apples.
