Just because we live in one of the largest cities in New York State, doesn’t mean that we Buffalonians have to give up on enjoying small-town activities like apple picking! Just minutes away from the Queen City, you can find charming apple orchards that come to life during the end of summer and throughout autumn. If you’re ready to explore one of the most unique farms in the area, then it’s time you grab your friends and family and get to apple picking at LynOaken Farms.
Less than 50 miles north of Buffalo, LynOaken Farms in Medina is just a quick drive away.
The thing that makes this apple orchard so unique though, is the fact that more than 350 different kinds of apples are grown here in its heritage garden!
With so many different kinds of apples growing on the farm, you'll find the trees planted three feet away from each other and only grow to be about eight feet tall.
Each tree is labeled and color-coordinated, with green signifying that the apples are ready to pick, yellow signifying that they're ripening, and red letting you know that they're not ready yet.
As well as other little-known apples and creations they've come up with. In 2009, they unveiled their SweeTango apple - an amazing cross between Honeycrisp and Zeststar apples!
