    Not specifically geared toward bringing dogs along but lots of fun!

    Our family went peach-picking on a summer weekday morning and we were allowed to bring our blue heeler mix on the ride out into the orchard without any issues. (Admission was $3/person and picked peaches cost $1.99/lb.) Dogs aren’t permitted inside the store, but there are a few tables outside and you can walk up to a custard and donut stand. I wouldn’t recommend bringing Fido here on your own (too many things to juggle while fruit-picking), but we enjoyed it and would love to go back for apples in cooler weather!
    A few things to be aware of:
    The trailer/shuttle was at mostly full capacity and a little bumpy, so keeping our dog close and steady was a bit of a challenge.
    We encountered lots of (polite and well-supervised) kids.
    I didn’t find any waste disposal options out in the peach orchard.
    A travel bowl is definitely recommended; there was a water cooler at the edge of the trees.
