“The Justus family has been growing apples for over 100 years, we love what we do and invite you to visit our apple orchard in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina.  Enjoy a day in the country with your family, picking apples from our dwarf-size apple trees, bring your lunch and enjoy eating it at our new picnic area while you take in the beautiful views surrounding our apple orchard.

We offer apple orchard tours for families, church groups and other groups featuring quality apples and a great time for all. You can pick your own apples, or we can pick them for you, but whichever way you like it you’re sure to find the variety of apple you love.  Make sure while you are here you visit our bakery for your favorite dessert.  We look forward to seeing you soon!”

At Knob Creek they love everything apples and offer an extensive range of delicious apple based products in their farm shop.

“Knob Creek Orchards has been family owned and operated since 1958.  We started as a small apple and peach business on the Cleveland-Lincoln county line and have grown to sell strawberries, blackberries, and homemade ice cream.

At Knob Creek Orchards we grow a wide variety of fruit.  We open up in the spring each year with strawberries.  In summer you will find peaches and blackberries.  The fall of the year brings us to a close with many varieties of apples.  Be sure to experience the joys of Knob Creek Orchards at every season. We begin harvesting apples in late August through December, so you will have plenty of time to make multiple trips to Knob Creek to experience many types of apples.

We’ve been growing strawberries since 1993.  With twenty years of experience, we strive to provide our customers with berries that, not only look great, but have the taste to match.  We plant new plants every October and cover them with plastic so when spring arrives our berries are well protected and ready to go!

YOU CAN HAVE STRAWBERRIES IN THE FALL!

We begin picking our fall strawberries, straight out of the field, in late October/ early November. Bring your friends and have a bucket of our flavor-rich berries!“
