Apple Jack Orchards

Our take

The short version

Apple Jack Orchards markets itself as one of the largest fall “Fun Farm” operations in the Twin Cities’ northwest metro, built around carnival-style attractions — a jumping pillow, giant slide, cow train, and apple cannon — layered on top of pick-your-own rows and a corn maze. The honest caveat here is sourcing: while the address and phone number came from the orchard’s own site, the reported admission pricing and a September 5, 2026 opening date came from a third-party aggregator, not from Apple Jack’s own pages. Treat both as a starting point to confirm rather than settled fact.

Reported pricing, not confirmed pricing

Third-party sources report a tiered admission structure: $10 on weekdays with limited activities running, and $20 on weekends with the full slate of attractions open. Pick-your-own apples are described as priced separately from that Fun Farm admission. This is a genuinely useful structure to know about if it’s accurate — the weekday discount, in particular, could matter for a smaller group or one that doesn’t need every ride running — but because it wasn’t found directly on the orchard’s own site during this research, call 763-972-6673 to confirm current pricing before you budget your trip around it.

An unconfirmed but plausible opening date

The same caveat applies to timing: a reported September 5, 2026 opening for the Fun Farm comes from aggregator search results rather than Apple Jack’s own homepage, which didn’t display season dates at the time this research was done. September openings are typical for northwest-metro orchards generally, so the reported date is plausible, but “plausible” isn’t the same as confirmed — this is exactly the kind of detail worth a quick phone call before driving out.

No apple varieties named

Beyond timing and pricing, the record doesn’t include any named apple varieties or confirm cider offerings. That’s a real gap if choosing an orchard based on a specific variety matters to you — there’s simply nothing in this record to go on for that question, and it’s worth asking directly when you call.

Built for carnival-style fun, not a quiet picking trip

What is clear from the record is the attraction lineup: a jumping pillow, giant slide, cow train, apple cannon, and corn maze. Per the research notes, Apple Jack leans on these carnival-style attractions alongside its pick-your-own rows, positioning itself more as a “Fun Farm” destination than a traditional quiet orchard. If your group is drawn specifically to that kind of high-energy fall outing, that reputation is confirmed by the activities list even where pricing and dates aren’t.

Weekday versus weekend really matters here

If the reported pricing structure holds, the difference between a weekday and weekend visit isn’t just cost — it’s which attractions are actually running. A $10 weekday visit with “limited activities” suggests some of the bigger draws (possibly the jumping pillow or giant slide) may not be operating outside weekends. If a specific attraction is the reason you’re visiting, confirm by phone whether it runs on the day you’re planning to come.

Getting there

Apple Jack Orchards is at 4875 37th Street SE in Delano, Wright County, in the Twin Cities Northwest Metro region. Coordinates on file are an approximate area estimate, not individually geocoded.

Bottom line

Apple Jack looks like a solid pick for families chasing a bigger, carnival-style fall day, but this particular record leans more heavily on third-party sourcing than most others in this batch — the pricing tiers and opening date both need a direct call to 763-972-6673 to confirm before you commit to a visit date or budget.
