Our take

The short version

Wightman Farms is a Morris County farm market on Mount Kemble Avenue in Morristown that also runs a pick-your-own operation for apples and peaches. The record makes one distinction worth flagging up front: the farm market is open daily, 8am to 6pm, but pick-your-own apples runs on a narrower schedule — weekends only, 9am to 4pm. If you’re picturing a daily apple-picking outing, this isn’t quite that; if you’re picturing a weekend trip that also lets you browse a bakery and cafe, it fits well.

Two schedules, not one

It’s easy to see “open daily” somewhere in a farm’s marketing and assume that covers everything the property offers. Here it doesn’t. The record is explicit that pick-your-own is a weekend-only program, distinct from the farm market’s seven-day hours. That’s a common structure at larger, more retail-oriented farms — the market side needs to stay open to sell what’s already been picked and baked, while the picking fields themselves are staffed and supervised only when weekend crowds justify it. If a Tuesday drive is what you’re planning, call ahead (973-425-9819) before you go, because the record doesn’t leave room to assume otherwise.

What’s confirmed, and what isn’t

The record confirms both u-pick and pre-picked apples are available (both fields are marked true), and peaches are mentioned in the source note as part of the same pick-your-own program. What isn’t confirmed is any apple variety list. Neither the orchard’s own site nor the record names a single variety — no Honeycrisp, no Gala, nothing. That’s a real gap if you’re trying to plan a visit around a specific apple’s ripening window. Pricing is similarly blank: no price_from, no price_note. Cider is also a non-starter here in terms of an on-site mill — the record marks cider_mill as false, and cider donuts aren’t confirmed either way (the field is null, meaning it wasn’t found rather than confirmed absent).

A bakery and cafe alongside the orchard

Where Wightman Farms does offer confirmed detail is in its non-orchard amenities. The activities list includes a farm market, a bakery, and a cafe — meaning this isn’t purely a pick-your-own stop. If part of your trip plan includes grabbing something to eat or bringing home baked goods rather than just a bag of apples, that’s a genuine point in the farm’s favor, and it’s confirmed rather than inferred.

Where it fits regionally

Morris County already has some well-known names in this space — Alstede Farms and Riamede Farm are the two most frequently mentioned in “best New Jersey apple picking” roundups, and both are already represented in this dataset. Wightman Farms fills out that same regional cluster. If you’ve already been to Alstede or Riamede and are looking for a third stop nearby, or if either of those is fully booked on a given weekend, Wightman is a reasonable Morris County alternative — just remember the weekend-only picking window is a real constraint here in a way it may not be at the others.

Getting there

The address is 1111 Mount Kemble Ave, Morristown, NJ 07960. The listed coordinates (40.7728, -74.5100) are described in the record as an estimated street-level position along Mount Kemble Avenue rather than a precise geocode of the actual parcel, so treat the pin as approximate and navigate by the street address itself.

Bottom line

Wightman Farms is a legitimate weekend pick-your-own option in a Morris County apple-picking scene that already has two well-known names. The market and bakery are open daily, but if apple picking is the point of your trip, build it around a Saturday or Sunday between 9am and 4pm — and call ahead, since neither varieties nor pricing are confirmed in the record.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

Weekends, 9am-4pm, when pick-your-own is actually open. No 2026-specific season start or end date is published.

Who it suits

Good for

  • Weekend visitors who want to combine apple picking with a farm market stop
  • Anyone who wants a bakery or cafe break built into the trip
  • Families already familiar with nearby Alstede or Riamede looking for a third Morris County option

Skip it if

You can only get there on a weekday and specifically want to pick your own apples — the record shows pick-your-own as weekends only.

Common questions

Can I pick my own apples on a Tuesday?

Not according to the record. Pick-your-own runs weekends only, 9am-4pm. The farm market itself is open daily, 8am-6pm, but that's a separate operation from the orchard rows.

What apple varieties does Wightman Farms grow?

Not stated in the record. The orchard's own site confirms pick-your-own apples and peaches but doesn't publish a variety list.

Is there a cider mill on-site?

No. The record marks cider_mill as false.

What else is there to do besides pick apples?

The record lists a farm market, bakery, and cafe alongside the pick-your-own operation.

How do I get pricing information?

Not in the record — no price_from or price_note is listed. Call ahead at 973-425-9819.
