Spring at Apteds is here.

This September school holidays, we’re opening the orchard for a new way to experience spring.

Across six selected days, families can wander the Spring Discovery Trail, take on our Little Growers Orchard Quest, enjoy orchard play and photo stops, then find a spot beneath the trees for a picnic.

Selected days also feature visiting food, live entertainment and seasonal activities - check out our program on the website for more details.

Blossom will naturally be one of the beautiful parts of the season, but Spring at Apteds is about more than catching the perfect blossom weekend. It’s a chance to experience a real working orchard as spring unfolds around it.

19, 20, 21, 22, 24 & 25 September
10am - 3pm

A limited release of Early Bird tickets is now available.

Adults $10
Children $5
Family $28
Plus booking fee.

Once the Early Bird allocation is gone, standard ticket pricing will apply.
