Afton Apple Orchard has over 200+ beautiful acres producing delicious Minnesota grown strawberries, raspberries, pumpkins and 13 different varieties of apples that can be picked by our customers at the peak of perfection.

Corn Maze:
This huge 15 acre corn maze is calling your name! The maze is divided into 3 phases. The first phase is for beginners, and those who consider themselves to be directionaly challenged! You can exit there, or go on to the 2nd, more difficult phase. If you are up to the challenge, continue through the 3rd, and most difficult phase. There are over 6 miles of twists and turns! Try it by the light of day, or try your luck by the light of the moon.

Pumpkins:
What's fall without a trip to the pumpkin patch? Come on out to our pumpkin patch for a hayride and enjoy the breathtaking autumn colors of the scenic St. Croix Valley! Stay for a piping hot cup of fresh apple cider, coffee or hot chocolate. Sit at the picnic tables and watch your children play on the playground or pet the animals in our petting farm. Pick up some extras while the getting is good, because there are a lot of ways to use pumpkins other than using them for carving or pumpkin pie.

Pumpkin picking season starts late September and goes through October. We have mini pumpkins, pie pumpkins, small jack-o-lanterns, medium pumpkins and very large pumpkins! We also have gourds, several varieties of squash and both small and large ornamental decorating corn.
