Prepare For The Fall Season at Dougherty Orchards and Winery

When the trees begin to display their colors and pumpkins start to appear, you’ll know it's time to get ready for the fall. At Dougherty Orchards & Winery, we’re ready for it! Whether you're here for the apples, the wine, or the farm vibes, the orchards and winery will be waiting for you.

Free Friday Nights Throughout Fall

The Orchard’s Free Friday Nights continue all through the fall. These family-friendly nights are a great time to bring your friends, grab a cider slush, and enjoy a relaxed evening on the farm. With extended hours (we’re open until 10 p.m. on Fridays), there’s more time than ever to soak up those autumn sunsets.

Savor The Fall Flavors

What’s on the fall menu? Our hot, fresh apple donuts are always available, but we expand our apple selection in the fall to include treats like apple donut sundaes, gooey apple dumplings, and crisp caramel apples. Of course, we can’t forget the apple slushes and apple wine. This season is dessert heaven.

If you’re craving something savory and comforting, our fall menu also features classic comfort foods like pulled pork, chili cheese dogs, chili, and wraps. And we have something new this year: our very own pizza oven! It’s the perfect addition to our full food menu. Nothing beats fresh pizza and a crisp glass of wine on a fall afternoon or evening.

What’s New This Fall?

Fall 2025 introduces some exciting new options to our tasting menu. We're launching four brand-new wines, and for the first time, we’re serving bourbon. Bourbon flights are available for those who want to sip and sample something that warms the soul.

It’s the perfect season to cozy up with a glass, explore new flavors, and discover your new favorite pour.

Orchard Fun for All Ages

The late frost resulted in a smaller apple harvest this year (so pick-your-own apples will be limited), but there’s still plenty to do around the farm! Our petting farm is full of friendly farm and exotic animals. The butterfly garden is bursting with color, and the flower farm is still blooming even after Labor Day!

You can still stroll through the fields, pick a bouquet, or head out to the patch to pick a pumpkin straight from the vine. Visit our shop, which offers pumpkins, flowers, treats, and a variety of gifts.
