Apple Varieties

A working apple farm with cider press. Cafe with fresh donuts. You can watch them being made! Don’t miss the cider press. Gift shop with many interesting items. Goat to feed, play areas for different ages. Something different to do. Close to town but feels like a farm.

Curtis Apple Orchard is great family-owned business. If you want to celebrate Fall, this is the place to come. They have great apple cider donuts and fritters, apple cider, pies, apples (peaches in late summer), and they serve great food, especially on weekends. You can pick your own pumpkins and apples, which can be pricey, but you will have a great time. If you don’t want to pick your own, there are plenty of pumpkins, apples and gourds to pick from.

My experiences at Curtis Orchard are consistently heartwarming. I go every year to celebrate the love of two of my best friends, and I stop in a few other times for pumpkins and apples. Your staff is always friendly and helpful, and the apple donuts are to die for. You’re a gem on the hand of Central Illinois. Thanks for being awesome!

I really enjoyed It! the kids enjoyed picking out their pumpkins, we enjoyed buying our hot apple cider perfect day for that and it was very good! also our caramel apples and popcorn, apple donuts and more, cant wait to go again if you get to cold just go inside to shop a bit….

We were there in the fall and it was so much fun!~ Lots of activities for the kids, great apples and a really nice shop with lots of things for sale~

I’m so beyond thrilled we have such a treasure so close to home. Such a great little place!

Pecan, Pumpkin, and Apple… oh pie!
Love the pies, cider donuts, and the Oz themed playground for the kids.
Their shoppe is huge and full of great gifts for a one-stop-shop! Stock up for parties or the holidays.

One of the best ciders in the Midwest; we try to get some every year. We got here on a beautiful fall day this time – ideal for photos on top of everything else. We love the shop. Stock up on apple varieties we love, nab a syrup or two, small bag of rocks (every year), apple donuts, and fudge (whether or not we need it), apple slushies when we need a drink, clever wall decor to crack us up, jams, honeys… The goats and chickens are always fun. … Glad to have a good orchard so close to us. … Read more

Very personable employees! Thanks, Chris for sharing great apple orchard life stories!

My family loves Curtis Orchard. Our first visit was in Sept. of 2014. We had just moved here and I was very pregnant with my daughter. The very next day, she decided to make a surprise early appearance! We have since made a visit to the orchard at least once every fall. The kids always have so much fun, even when we stick to the free activities. We also picked apples this year, near the end of September, and they were amazing! All four varieties were so delicious that we easily ate through all f… Read more
