Welcome to Fruit Basket Orchards, the only full-service U-Pick orchard in western Colorado.
June 18 – For those of you who have been waiting for cherries and apricots to be ripe, this is the weekend, June 19 and 20. There should be some apricots and plenty of cherries in the store, as well as some apricots for U-pick and lots of cherries for those who want to pick. We will have larger quantities at a special price.
In the store, honey, dried apples, and some Soapy Goat products, will be available.
As a reminder, two things have changed this year, the irrigation system, be careful not to step on or trip on them. And the trimmings from pruning were mulched in place leaving lots of partially mulched sticks, that means No open toed shoes, for your own protection. Remember these changes and come for an enjoyable time.
We look forward to seeing you in the orchard.
Our motto is “strive to grow the most delicious, enjoyable, fruit available” and if it grows on our property, we’ll let you pick and take it home. We grow a little bit of everything, including all your favorite stone fruit (peaches, sweet cherries, tart cherries, nectarines, apricots, plums), raspberries (they are planted), plus 18 varieties of apples. We also grow table grapes and a few pears.
The store address is 253 32-1/2 Road, Grand Junction, CO 81503 or give us a call at (970) 434-3063. We accept all major credit cards.
