Phil's U-Pick Apple Orchard

Our take

What the record actually confirms

Phil’s U-Pick Apple Orchard is located at 760 N 500 W in Huntington, Huntington County. There’s no independent orchard website — its only online presence in this record is a Facebook page, which wasn’t fetched during this research. Instead, every detail here comes from third-party directories: the Huntington County Visitors Bureau, upickfarmsusa.com, and americantowns.com, all read September 2, 2026. Phone is 260-388-1832.

Reported hours are 11am-6pm Monday through Saturday and 11am-5pm Sunday, open daily. Three varieties are named — Honeycrisp, Jonathan, and Golden Delicious — a solid mid-to-late-season spread, though no specific ripening windows are given for any of them.

No entry fee, but bring cash

Two operational details stand out clearly in this record. First, there’s no entry fee to get into the orchard — visitors pay only for what they actually pick, per the Huntington County Visitors Bureau. That’s a straightforward, low-commitment model compared to orchards elsewhere in this research that charge flat per-person admission on top of bag or per-pound pricing.

Second, and worth planning around directly: this is described as a cash-or-check operation, meaning card payments aren’t reliably available on site. That’s an easy detail to overlook if you’re used to tapping a card everywhere, so pack cash or a checkbook before heading out.

Over 50 years, more than 100 acres

The Huntington County Visitors Bureau reportedly describes Phil’s as having operated as a family orchard for more than 50 years across more than 100 acres. That’s a genuinely long operating history, on the older end of the family farms in this research batch, though — like several other claims in this record — it comes from a third-party tourism source rather than the orchard’s own materials, since none exist online in a form this research could check.

Why “approximate” is the right word here

Because there’s no dedicated orchard website, everything in this record — hours, variety list, even the basic fact that it’s still operating under current conditions — is sourced secondhand from directories that may or may not reflect this season’s reality. The orchard does maintain a Facebook page, which is likely the most current source of information, but it wasn’t part of this research pass. If you’re planning a trip, checking that Facebook page directly, or simply calling 260-388-1832, is a meaningfully better source than anything compiled here.

What’s missing

No activities beyond a pumpkin patch are listed. No pricing detail exists beyond the no-entry-fee policy — since you pay per pick, presumably by weight or bag, but the record doesn’t specify which. No season start or end date is given at all.

Bottom line

Phil’s U-Pick Apple Orchard offers a genuinely simple, no-entry-fee model backed by more than 50 years of family operation, with three solid mid-to-late-season varieties on offer. The catch is that almost everything here is secondhand from tourism directories rather than the orchard itself, and it’s a cash-or-check operation with no confirmed live website — call ahead, bring cash, and treat the reported hours as a starting point rather than a guarantee.
