Ferguson’s Minnesota Harvest

The Ferguson family took over ownership in 2022 with a simple goal – to carry on a decades-long tradition of opening the farm to the community. Our family is passionate about growing safe, healthy fruit and our favorite time of the year is when we open our farms to visitors each fall. Learn where your food comes from, meet your farmer, make tons of family memories and eat to your heart’s content!

Move over pumpkin spice lattes, the new unofficial start of fall begins with the opening of Ferguson’s Minnesota Harvest, an award-winning fall destination full of immersive autumn festivities for the whole family. Less than half an hour south of the Twin Cities, the family-owned farm opens its gates with the return of popular traditions including apple picking, a legendary Corn Maze, the thrilling Cow Train, and sensational new attractions such as the Cider Barn for adults, the Slippery Slope slides and an expanded Play Village for children.

Named the 2023 “Best Apple Orchard” in Minnesota by the Star Tribune, guests of Minnesota Harvest can enjoy family fun for only $15 per person, and children under two years old gain free admission. This one-time purchase includes a season pass allowing for unlimited daily entry from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. throughout the season from August 19 to November 5. Tickets for active-duty military, veterans, and seniors are $13 per person.

Since Mother Nature can make apple growing interesting, our family has spread out our orchards in hopes that, in theory anyway, our risk from weather events will be spread out. Over 20 years ago, we knew that it was our family’s responsibility to share these beautiful farms with our community, and we haven’t looked back! Stop out this fall to check out all the new additions!
