A mid-sized Illinois River Valley u-pick orchard with roughly 1,800 trees and 25 varieties — but the record leans on third-party listings rather than the orchard's own site, since that site returned a certificate error during research.
Boggio’s Orchard & Produce is at 12087 IL-71 in Granville, Putnam County, with a phone number of 815-339-2245. Its website is listed as boggiosorchardandproduce.com, but the source note is explicit that this site returned a certificate error when fetched directly on September 2, 2026. Because of that, everything in this record about hours and activities comes from third-party sources instead — an Illinois River Road tourism site, Enjoy Illinois, and Yelp, all reviewed the same day. That’s a meaningfully different sourcing situation from most other entries in this file, which draw primarily from the orchard’s own pages, and it’s worth flagging plainly rather than presenting this as equally confirmed.
The record gives two separate hour blocks. Through August 30, the farm runs Monday-Saturday 8am-5pm and Sunday 9am-2pm. Starting August 31, fall hours begin Monday-Saturday at 8am, but the record doesn’t have a confirmed closing time for that fall schedule — only the opening time carried over into the secondhand sources checked. Sunday hours for the fall stretch also aren’t confirmed. Anyone visiting after August 31 should treat the closing time as an open question and consider calling 815-339-2245 to confirm before heading out, especially later in the day.
The research notes describe Boggio’s as a mid-sized operation with roughly 1,800 apple trees and 25 varieties, filling a geographic gap along the Illinois River Valley corridor between the Chicago-area cluster of orchards further north and the Peoria-area cluster further south. No individual variety names are given, so this record can’t speak to which specific apples are available at Boggio’s or when they ripen — only that the orchard advertises a reasonably broad 25-variety roster.
Boggio’s activity list is one of the more complete in this file for a mid-sized orchard: a petting zoo, corn maze, wagon ride, apple slide, and jumping pillow are all confirmed. That’s a fairly typical family-orchard lineup, comparable to several of the larger Chicago-area operations in this file, even though Boggio’s itself is a smaller, more rural farm by tree count. No pricing is given for admission or for any of these individual activities.
Because the primary source here is third-party rather than the orchard’s own site, this entry should be read with a bit more caution than others in this file. The certificate error on Boggio’s own domain doesn’t necessarily mean anything is wrong with the farm itself — it’s a common, fixable technical issue that can affect any small business website — but it does mean the specific hours and activity details here haven’t been double-checked against the orchard’s own current wording. Treat the general shape of the information (a real orchard, roughly this size, with roughly these activities) as solid, and treat exact hours and pricing as things worth confirming by phone.
Boggio’s Orchard & Produce is a genuine, mid-sized u-pick stop along the Illinois River Valley with a strong lineup of family activities and a reasonably broad 25-variety roster. The honest caveat here is sourcing: because the orchard’s own website wasn’t reachable during this research pass, hours and activities come from third-party listings rather than a primary source, so a call to 815-339-2245 is a good idea before planning a visit around a specific time of day, especially in the fall stretch after August 31.
Not stated as fixed apple-season dates in the record. Summer hours (through Aug 30) are Mon-Sat 8am-5pm and Sun 9am-2pm; fall hours from Aug 31 begin Mon-Sat at 8am, though the closing time for fall hours wasn't confirmed.
