Big Apple Farm in Wrentham Reopens for Summer Pick-Your-Own Season
Wrentham, MA – One of the town’s most cherished family-run farms is officially back in action. Big Apple Farm, a local favorite for generations, has reopened under third-generation ownership, just in time for blueberry season.
The farm, located just off Route 1A, welcomed its first visitors of the season last week. Guests were greeted by rows of ripe blueberry bushes, updated signage, and a refreshed farm stand, all signaling a new era for this beloved destination.
A Family Tradition Continues
Big Apple Farm has long been a staple of the Wrentham community, known for its sprawling orchards, fresh produce, and seasonal pick-your-own offerings. Now, the farm is being run by the family’s third generation, who are bringing a renewed energy and vision while staying true to the traditions that made the farm a local icon.
“We’re so excited to welcome everyone back,” said one family member working the farm stand. “This land means a lot to us and we’re proud to share it with the community.”
Blueberry Season Now Open
Blueberries are currently in peak season, and guests are encouraged to come early for the best picking conditions. The fields are open daily, with staff on hand to help visitors navigate the rows and gather the ripest fruit. Buckets and boxes are provided, and pricing is available by the pound.
For many families, a trip to Big Apple Farm is more than just a stop for fresh fruit—it’s a summer tradition. Kids run between the bushes, parents snap photos, and everyone goes home with a basket full of sun-ripened berries.
Apple Picking Returns This Fall
While blueberries are the current star of the show, apple season is already on the horizon. The farm is preparing for a full apple harvest later this fall, with several varieties expected to be ready by mid-September. Guests can also look forward to classic autumn favorites like cider donuts, hot mulled cider, and homemade jams sold right from the farm stand.
Big Apple Farm also plans to reintroduce weekend wagon rides and host a few seasonal events to celebrate the fall harvest.
Supporting Local Agriculture
In a time when local farming faces growing challenges, the reopening of Big Apple Farm is more than just good news—it’s a reminder of the importance of supporting small, family-run agriculture. Wrentham residents and visitors alike are encouraged to visit, pick some fruit, and enjoy everything this scenic farm has to offer.
