When it comes to nature at its best, the beautiful days of autumn speak to our senses. Crisp fresh air and colorful scenes with leaves ablaze wherever you turn welcome you to celebrate the climax of the growing season at Patterson Fruit Farm. Harvest is in full gear with an abundance of apples leading the way.  In fact you can pick your own apples daily at the Mulberry Road location into the middle of October. Stop by the farm market to shop and to enjoy the scenes overlooking Lake Erie on Caves Road or bring the family to the Family Fun Fest on the Mulberry Road farm to play for a while – both in Chesterland.

While the market is open year round, Pattersons add their Family Fun Fest to the action September 16 through November 1, 2026. There is an admission and you will find the fest is geared toward preschool through 6th graders with their families. Enjoy hiking, sliding, playing in the straw, climbing and “driving” tractors, viewing the world from the top of their tree house, disappearing in the silo and, in general, enjoying the out-of-doors filled with fun. No reservations needed.
