Linvilla is probably the most popular one in the Philadelphia area. They have everything: vast apple orchards, pumpkins patches and a cool farm experience with hay rides and corn maze. It's seriously Fall-o-Rama at Linvilla, so be prepared for crowds (Photo: uwishunu)

Pickin' starts this weekend, September 13th, on this 200 acre staple in Chester County. Farm fresh fruits and veggies go great with their famous apple cider donuts.

Here's a review from Yelp: "One of the last family run orchards in the area, this orchard has excellent pick your own apples in the fall. Theres a small store that sells country goods that make you feel like you're still growing and harvesting your own food like homemade jams, apple cider, fresh grown spinach and other vegetables. Love it and hope they outlast the housing developers." So there you go - no nonsense apple picking!

There's pick-your-own a plenty at Frecon Farms in Boyertown. Fresh apples, pears, berries and pumpkins are all there for the taking. New this year: applewood fired pizzas, craft cider on draught and, of course, apple cider donuts.

Located in New Hope, Solebury Farm offers a wide array of delicious pick-you-own fruits, veggies, pumpkins and flowers. Take a ride out to Bucks County and enjoy the beautiful colors of the fall season.

Shady Brook Farm has pick-your-own apples, berries and pumpkins. Be sure to check out their Fall Festival for all kinds of goodies.

This is the place to go if you want to pick your own fruit without all of the crowds. It's smaller and doesn't cater towards the larger group/school crowd.

Lookin' to cross the bridge and enjoy your fall Saturday in South Jersey? Definitely check out Johnson's Farm. With tons of family friendly activities, Johnson's certainly embodies the "Jersey Fresh" motto.
