Our take

The short version

Linvilla Orchards, in Media, Delaware County, is widely described as the Philadelphia region’s signature pick-your-own destination — a 300-plus-acre operation that runs from strawberries in early summer through pumpkins in the fall. It was a clear gap in this dataset, which otherwise skews toward the Biglerville/Adams County and Bucks County orchard clusters in Pennsylvania. The record confirms daily pick-your-own hours and cider donuts, but the variety list is thinner than the farm’s reputation would suggest — a gap in what was published on the pages checked, not a reflection of what Linvilla actually grows.

Daily picking, not just weekends

One of the clearer confirmed details here: pick-your-own apples run daily, 8am to 4pm. That’s worth noting because several other orchards in this same research pass limit picking to weekends only. If your schedule doesn’t line up with a Saturday or Sunday, Linvilla’s daily window is a real practical advantage. The broader farm market keeps different hours — Friday and Saturday 8am to 6pm, Sunday through Thursday 8am to 6pm per the record — so the market itself is open every day regardless of when you pick.

One named variety, a bigger reputation

The orchard’s own pick-your-own page names “Premier Honeycrisp” specifically. That’s the only variety confirmed in the record, even though outside coverage describes Linvilla as offering a broader lineup across the season. Rather than fill in names that weren’t actually published on the pages the research drew from, the record leaves this short. If a specific variety beyond Honeycrisp matters to your trip, that’s a call-ahead question rather than something you can plan around from this record alone.

Cider donuts confirmed, cider mill unconfirmed

Cider donuts are sold at the market and confirmed in the record. What isn’t confirmed is whether Linvilla presses its own cider on-site with a working mill — that field is blank rather than marked false, meaning it simply wasn’t confirmed on the pages checked, not that there’s no mill. If watching cider get pressed is part of what you’re after, ask when you call.

A full-day farm, not just an orchard

Beyond the pick-your-own rows, the activities list includes hayrides, fishing, a playground, and barnyard animals, on top of the farm market itself. That range of offerings is consistent with Linvilla’s reputation as a broad, family-oriented agritourism destination that spans the whole growing season rather than a narrow fall-only apple stop.

What’s still missing

No pricing is listed — no price_from, no price_note — and no 2026-specific season start or end date is published. Given how well-documented some of the other details are here (daily hours, specific address, confirmed cider donuts), the absence of pricing is worth flagging rather than assuming it’s simply low-cost or free.

Getting there

The address is 137 W Knowlton Rd, Media, PA 19063. Unlike many records in this dataset, the coordinates here (39.8841209, -75.4127419) come from an Apple Maps business listing rather than a rough town-center estimate, though the record notes they weren’t independently re-geocoded, so treat them as a solid approximation rather than a surveyed point.

Bottom line

Linvilla Orchards’ daily pick-your-own hours and confirmed cider donuts make it one of the more flexible options in this batch, and its regional reputation as a Philadelphia-area staple is well established. Just don’t expect a full variety list or pricing from the record alone — call 610-876-7116 to fill in those gaps before you go.
