A century-old family farm stand near Graton offering close to 30 apple varieties for tasting and purchase — an unusually wide selection for a small farm — but it's a farm stand, not u-pick, and no official website could be found.
Walker’s Apples is a small family farm outside Graton, near Sebastopol, with over a century of roots in the area, per research notes. Its standout feature is variety: the farm reportedly offers close to 30 apple varieties for tasting and purchase at its stand, an unusually wide selection for an operation this size. It is not, however, a u-pick destination — one source explicitly confirms the farm operates as a stand only, with no pick-your-own option.
Close to 30 apple varieties is a striking number, especially for what research notes describe as a small family operation. For context within this directory, that puts Walker’s in the same range as Denver Dan’s Apple Patch on Apple Hill, which is reported to grow around 35 varieties — both stand out from orchards naming just three or four varieties. For Walker’s specifically, that breadth is framed around tasting and purchasing at the stand rather than picking, so the appeal here is more like a well-stocked farmers-market table than an orchard walk.
It’s worth being direct about this because the record could otherwise be ambiguous: one source explicitly states that Walker’s Apples does not offer u-pick and operates as a farm stand only. That’s reflected in the record’s u_pick field being set to false. If picking apples yourself off the tree is the point of your visit, this isn’t the stop — but if you want to sample and buy from an unusually broad selection of already-picked fruit, it fits well.
The season window here — daily, late July through December — is notably longer than most u-pick orchards in this directory, many of which run for a few weeks or a couple of months centered on the fall harvest. That makes some sense for a farm-stand model: since Walker’s isn’t dependent on managing crowds of pickers in the orchard itself, it can stay open across a wider stretch of the calendar, potentially stocking early-season varieties in late summer through later-ripening apples into December. That said, this window comes from aggregated sources rather than a confirmed current schedule, so it’s a general pattern rather than a locked calendar.
Research notes place Walker’s roots in the Graton area at over a century, tying it to the same historic Sebastopol-area apple-growing tradition referenced for Apple-A-Day Ratzlaff Ranch elsewhere in this directory. That kind of longevity, paired with an unusually wide variety selection, suggests a farm that has spent generations building out its apple offerings rather than specializing narrowly.
Unlike some other entries in this file, no official website was found for Walker’s Apples during research. That means there’s no direct source to check for current hours, pricing, the actual list of 30 varieties, or up-to-date season information — everything here comes from aggregated listings like Yelp, LocalHarvest, and 7x7. If you’re planning a visit, calling 707-823-4310 directly is the most reliable way to get current, farm-confirmed details.

Walker’s Apples is a strong pick for variety and browsing — close to 30 apples in one stand, from a farm with over a century of history — but it’s a stand-only stop, not a picking destination, and with no official website, a phone call is the best way to confirm hours and what’s currently in stock.
