Beasley’s Orchard: A Summer and Fall Destination in Hendricks County

Insider Tips

Farm-Fresh Produce in the Barn

Beasley’s produces and sells various items, including apples, tomatoes, squash, strawberries, sweet corn, green beans, cucumbers, peppers, eggplant, cantaloupe, watermelon, and pumpkins. All these items can be found in their old barn turned market, which houses the apple production area and the cider mill.

More Barn Finds

Beasley’s market is not just about fresh apples and other produce. Their market is also filled with jars of freshly made jams and jellies, gluten-free black bean dip, salsa, Amish-made popcorn, locally harvested honey, and much more.

Barnyard Bonanza

This expansive children’s play area includes a ball zone where kids can pitch baseballs, throw footballs, and shoot basketballs, a spider web rope climber, an enormous inflated jumping pillow, and more!

U-Pick Apples

Beasley’s has a dedicated area of its orchard where the public can pick apples right off the tree from Labor Day Weekend through the end of October. Grab a basket and get to picking!

Amazing Corn Maze

Beasley’s popular corn maze opens on weekends from mid-September through the end of October. The maze spans over 8 acres and features more than four miles of trails. The theme of the maze changes every year, making it truly a work of art!

Fall Fun

Beasley’s Orchard is perhaps best known for the Heartland Apple Festival, an annual fall tradition that brings in visitors from across the region. Held over the first two weekends of October every year, it includes numerous kids’ activities, live music, food, arts and crafts vendors, wine tastings, and more.

Festival Tip: Save with a Kids Pass

The Heartland Apple Festival is a child’s dream, with a giant hay mountain, a Kids' Zone with all kinds of inflatables, face painting, and more. Make sure to buy kids' passes for all the activities to take advantage of their discounted rates.

Festival Tip: Climb on the Hayride

For the best pumpkins, take a hayride to Beasley’s pumpkin patch during the Heartland Apple Festival. You’ll have the opportunity to pick pumpkins of all sizes. If you don’t want to make the trip out to the patch, various pumpkins are also available outside the market.

Apple Cider & Apple Cannons

You can’t go to Beasley’s without trying their two most popular attractions: their award-winning apple cider and homemade apple cannons. Sip on fresh cider and shoot your best shot at target practice.

Hard Cider

Beasley’s now offers a not-too-sweet and refreshing hard cider brewed with their award-winning blend of apple cider straight from the orchard; however, this is reserved for the 21+ and up crowd, so bring an ID.
