The Stutzman Ranch

Orchard · Wenatchee · Washington

This working u-pick orchard on the edge of Wenatchee moves through the harvest with the calendar: cherries first, then peaches and nectarines, and by late August the apples, pears, and grapes that carry it into September. Bring your own containers and pick by the row; the fruit stand weighs and charges you on the way out.

Best for: A quieter u-pick orchard away from the bigger Wenatchee farm stands

Don’t miss

  • U-pick apples, pears and grapes
  • Fruit stand open daily in season
  • Cherries and stone fruit earlier in summer
