Steffens Orchard Market offers a variety of fun things to do during the fall harvest season!
Orchard shuttle and tour
$3.00 for adults, children 4 and under are free
Includes 15 minute DVD on “Steffens Orchards and Apple Production” if you would like to watch it in the barn.
Pick Your Own Apples
Same price as picked apples. Cost depends on amount you pick. Not all varieties are grown at the market location.
Scarecrow Factory
Build your own scarecrow at our Scarecrow Factory. We have everything you need. Scarecrows can be small, medium or large. The tallest are about 8 ft.
We make scarecrows with recycled materials, including the stuffing. We do not recommend stuffing your scarecrow with straw because mice like it too much. Straw is good for making hands and feet.
Come and have a great time. Allow at least an hour to make a great
scarecrow. You can put your scarecrow in the garden, sit it on the porch or out in the yard. 
Cost is $16 if we provide the clothes. If you bring along an outfit or a old pair of pants and long sleeved shirt the cost is only $13. You will be building the scarecrow with some guidance.
Do you have extra plastic bags from the grocery store that you would like to recycle? Please bring them with you!

Moonwalk This inflatable is great fun for children up to about age 10. They need to remove their shoes before entering and jumping. This activity is not available during rain. FREE!

U-Pick Pumpkins are available late September and October. We have a great variety of pumpkins, gourds and winter squash that you can pick. Cost depends on the size of the pumpkin.
