Pick Your Own Apples at Plummers Orchard in the Adelaide Hills.
The 2024 apple season has finally started so it’s the perfect time to take a drive into the Adelaide Hills and pick some beautifully sweet, crisp and crunchy Royal Gala apples fresh from the trees.
Apple picking is suitable for all ages and a great activity for families and kids to learn about where apples come from. The property is situated in Forest Range, a lovely part of the hills just 20kms from Adelaide.
Other apple varieties will be available as the season progresses.
Pick your own apples starts late February and will open most weekends through to mid May – follow their social media page below for updates.

No bookings required. Take your own bag to collect the apples (or purchase one at the orchard).
