Tuttle Orchards

Our take

What the record actually confirms

Tuttle Orchards, now operating under the domain indianapolisorchard.com (a rebrand from tuttleorchards.com, which now redirects there), sits at 5717 N 300 W in Greenfield, Hancock County. The orchard’s own site confirmed the address and a phone number, 317-326-2278, when read on September 2, 2026, though it didn’t state 2026 u-pick season dates or current bag pricing directly. Cider donuts are confirmed, and a pumpkin patch, corn maze, farm play area, and tours round out the activity list.

Five varieties are named in the record — Gala, Blondee, Cortland, Golden Supreme, and Jonathan — sourced from a Greenfield Daily Reporter feature rather than the orchard’s own copy. That’s a genuinely useful list by apple-calendar standards: Gala and Golden Supreme tend to ripen mid-season, Cortland and Jonathan run mid-to-late, so this reads as an orchard set up for a solid multi-week picking window rather than a narrow one- or two-variety operation.

The pricing gap, and how to think about it

The clearest hole in this record is current bag pricing. A 2025 Axios roundup put three bag sizes at roughly $8, $16, and $25, and while that’s a reasonable planning reference, it’s a year old and wasn’t confirmed on Tuttle’s own 2026 materials. Prices for u-pick bags don’t typically swing wildly year to year, but treating last year’s numbers as this year’s guarantee would be the wrong move — use them to budget roughly, then confirm by phone or on the day.

The Greenfield Daily Reporter coverage also noted Tuttle has reportedly been adding apple acreage and new varieties in recent seasons, which is worth knowing if you’re a regular visitor expecting the same five-variety list every year — this orchard appears to be actively expanding rather than static.

Nearly a century of scale

What distinguishes Tuttle from smaller Indiana orchards in this research batch is the size of its retail operation: a farm store carrying more than 2,000 products, according to the record, alongside its picking rows. That’s a meaningfully larger operation than a bare fruit stand, and it draws heavy regional fall traffic for the combination of apple picking with the pumpkin patch and corn maze on the same visit — useful if you’re planning a half-day trip rather than a quick in-and-out.

The nearly-century-old history (the record describes it as “nearly a century-old central-Indiana institution”) is a genuine differentiator worth noting, though the record doesn’t give a specific founding year.

What to check before you go

Confirm three things directly with the orchard before visiting: current bag pricing for 2026, which varieties are actually ripe on the week you’re going, and whether Sunday closures affect your planning (the record states the orchard is closed Sundays, unlike some peers that run seven days).

Bottom line

Tuttle Orchards offers a genuinely broad experience — five named varieties, a large farm store, cider donuts, and a full slate of fall activities — backed by a real address and phone number confirmed on the orchard’s current site. The one thing this record can’t hand you with confidence is this year’s exact bag price, so treat the $8/$16/$25 figures as last year’s ballpark and confirm before you go.
