Fishkill Farms in Hopewell Junction is a 200-acre orchard with pick-your-own slots: strawberries in June, peaches in August, apples in fall.
Fishkill Farms is a 200-plus-acre working orchard where picking is reservation-only: book online before you go, since walk-up picking isn't guaranteed and weekend slots in peak apple season sell out. Once you check in, a wagon carries you out to whichever field is producing that week, a detail families with small kids appreciate as much as the picking itself.
The farm store sells fresh produce and baked goods. The apple cider donuts, made fresh throughout the day, are worth the stop even if you skip picking.
