I found Hayden's Orchard in a Google search for peach-picking farms back in 2021, and it has became my favorite farm out east. They offer
a great variety of peaches and apples. The prices are reasonable compared to other farms in the area, which tend to overcharge for a similar experience.
Last time I went with my family (there are six of us), we paid around $10 per person and got 20 pounds of peaches with that fee. Hence the wristbands. Anything over that was $3 per pound, which is a great deal when you consider you're picking them yourself—it’s such a fun activity to do with family, especially in August when peach season is at its peak.

The staff is always friendly and helpful, but I do recommend bringing your own wagon. Trust me, those peaches get heavy after a while! It's a nice workout though, and a great way to get your steps in.

My family loves it, and despite trying other places, we always end up back at Hayden's for both peach and apple picking. Definitely give them a try—you won’t be disappointed!

Visited Hayden's Orchard today.
It was 12:00 and couldn't get into the other orchards at that time, so we decided to go Hayden's.
Was a very nice experience.
$20 for 20 lbs or apples/pears.
Wonderful picking experience shared with our family. No glitz and glitter, simple easy fun and enjoyment.
Try it if you would like to spend some leisure time together.

Went peach picking and had a great time. Yummy juicy fruits. Paid 40 for 10 lbs. In the farm shop sometimes they have 2$ bags of produce - ripe so has to go quickly.

This is a fantastic place. We came and we had a blast. As of 2023 the price is $30 for 10 lbs of peaches. Donut peaches were included in this price. This is a bargain. And it's free parking

DO NOT GO TO THIS FARM, VERY BAD EXPERIENCE. You get charged $30 when you go in, and you can to pick 10lbs of peaches. Over 10lbs will be charged $3 per pound. The cashier lady told us in which row we could pick peaches, but when we got there, we didn't find ANY peaches. So we had to look around for peaches, but we did not find many peaches, because they were not open in many places. So in the end we only picked up some fallen peaches on the ground. When we left, we only had 7lbs of peaches, which was not enough for 10 pounds, but we had already paid for 10lbs of peaches, so we asked the cashier for help, the Spanish-speaking cashier lady was very rude and told us that there was nothing she could do. We told her we couldn't find any peaches in the open area, so she called the other workers and got confirmation there weren't any peaches in the open area she told us, so they opened another area. She even got into an argument with us in front of the other guests, it was the worst experience we've ever had and we're never coming back.

First time at this orchard, and the staff running the stand screamed at me because I didn't know i had to buy a bracelet to get in. I've never had to pay to get into an orchard, i usually just buy whatever I pick. But this lady was so nasty, and made a whole scene in front of everyone like im stealing. It was so embarrassing and unnecessary. The $20 would have been tolerable if not for how badly I was treated. That made me walk out and go elsewhere. I really can't believe how nasty she was.

The enterance is $20 for a group of 3 people and you can take home 10 lbs of peaches you pick in this enterance fee. Anything over 10 lbs is $2 per lb. They said on the phone red, white and yellow but red was not allowed to be picked.

The peaches were not fully ripe but its ok i like them like that. Fun activity for family.
I went to the farm on sunday 7/18/21
