Pick Your Own Fruit & Adventures at Mercier Orchards

Mercier Orchards is a great place to go if you want to enjoy the Blue Ridge area's abundant yearly fruit crop. This 300-acre orchard, which was founded in 1943 and is still owned and run by the same family, has become a tourist and local favorite.

Mercier Orchards, located in the rolling countryside about three miles from the city center, not only sells its home-grown produce in its large retail location, but also offers pick-your-own blueberries, strawberries, peaches, and apples. A tractor ride through the orchards and instruction on the best picking techniques are included in these family-friendly activities. If you merely want to go for a stroll around the orchards, the farm opens them up on weekends and other special occasions for a pleasant orchard stroll. On the property's ponds, catch-and-release fishing is also available. On-site, there's also a bakery and café that sells a range of sweet treats, including their famous fried pies. Other food items, such as locally produced jams and honey, as well as souvenirs, are available at their on-site store.
