Welcome to Mercier Orchards

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Located in Blue Ridge, Georgia, we are a fourth-generation family and veteran-owned and operated apple orchard founded back in 1943 by Bill and Adele Mercier. Be sure to pick up some delicious fruit, fresh baked goods, cider, and specialty items from the market when you visit.

Our Hours

Monday – Thursday: 9 AM – 5 PM
Friday – Sunday: 9 AM – 6 PM

We will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Year’s Day, and Easter.

U Pick

We have more than 80 years of farming under our belt, so you might say we know a thing or two about growing fruit. And with strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, peaches, and over 40 varieties of apples, we’re sure you’ll find something to pick that’ll suit your fancy. So head on over to the farm and join us for one of our famous U-Pick Events.

The Bakery

Our bakery is the sweetest part of our market! Every day, we arrive bright and early to make sure we have plenty of fresh baked goods for you to enjoy! From apple cider donuts to our world-famous fried pies, we have something for everyone!

The Market

We’ve got a whole bunch of fresh seasonal fruits and veggies at our market! Oh, and you definitely don’t want to miss out on our farm-favorite jams, jellies, preserves, and apple butter. There’s truly something for everybody here on the farm.

Winery & Hard Cidery

Did you know that Mercier Orchards is the only apple orchard in Georgia to grow, press, ferment, and can our very own hard cider? Stop on by our tasting room, sip a spell, and enjoy some good ol’ southern hospitality at the farm.

Mom and I had the most fun at Mercier’s yesterday!! It was her first time apple picking, and I think I ruined any other place for her (including, and especially, grocery store apples). We felt like family from the time we arrived—all were so friendly even with the busyness of a sunny October Monday. We visited another nearby orchard today, and it did not compare. There’s a reason this place is so highly rated! GOOOOO

Great spot for tons of goodies! This was way more than an apple store, they had wine, food, bakery items, snacks, toys, trinkets, and way more! I tried a fresh, still warm apple fritter that was delicious! I also enjoyed the apple fried pie!

Fall Apple Picking is a MUST — This was such a beautiful orchard! 🍎🍏Unfortunately, it stormed so I couldn’t explore the orchards fully but the inside market was huge with so many different products. There is wine tasting, cider and the bakery has a good selection of apple pies, cakes, donuts and breads. I will definitely be back! Make sure you prepare for a full day here!!

Has a great time picking apples with my family. It’s an $8 ticket per person to pick apples. They have 3 bag sizes to get apples. We picked the biggest one $30 and took 45 apples in the bag. It was a great experience and the weather was wonderful
