Pick your own on trees that are just the right height — between Spencerport and North Chili, a very short drive from the Rochester Tech Park.
Wagons run Saturday and Sunday. Cider and donuts in the store.
The Whittier Fruit Farm has been owned and operated by the Russell family since 1974. Ray and Judy Russell quickly replaced the very tall and old apple trees with smaller trees which are ideal for picking.
They also added other pick-your-own crops — blueberries, plums, sweet cherries and pumpkins. Soon their two sons, Dave and Mark, and their families joined the business. We are always planting new trees, so there are more and more choices each year.
From the first Paula Reds of late summer to the Northern Spy and Granny Smith at the end of the season. Check our news for what's being picked.
Trees that are just the right height for a pick-your-own farm, in a fairly compact area — no ladders necessary.
All apples are picked into containers we provide at no additional cost.
Our pick-your-own apples are sold by the pound — or buy apples already picked in our store.

Late June or JulyPicking time usually starts late June or July and lasts for two weeks. Plums are on the farm too.
Saturdays & Sundays in OctoberTall, fat, huge, small — for jack-o-lanterns, pies and decorations. Our tractor and wagon will take you to the patch, or pick one up at the farm market. Sold by the pound.
