Frequently Asked Questions About Fall on the Farm

 

  • Do you take Credit Card?
    • Yes!  We are currently CREDIT CARD ONLY.  Visa, MasterCard, Discover, & Debit are accepted.  We do NOT charge a credit card processing fee.
      • No Apple Pay/Contactless (Tap) Pay available at this time.
  • Why is the farm Credit Card only (Cashless)?
    • Back in 2021, the Long Boys were brainstorming and trying to come up with a way to make the donut line more efficient while still providing you with the same delicious hot donuts and fresh cider.  The solution they came up with was making the farm credit card only.  In turn, the donut line has been 40% faster than it was before when we allowed other methods of payment.  It allows us to not only provide you with the same great tastes of Fall, but also spend more time with your family and less time waiting in line.  We appreciate your support and understanding!
  • How late in the year does the Cider Mill remain open?
    • Inside the Cider Mill barn remains open for Cider, Donuts, Honey, Jams, Cider Slushes, already picked Apples, and more until the day before Thanksgiving (Wednesday November 27, 2024).
  • Can you freeze Apple Cider?
    • Yes!  You can freeze it to enjoy for the holidays and all YEAR long!  All you have to do is take about a cup or so out of the jug to leave room for it to expand before you place it in the freezer.  Once you take it out just make sure to let it thaw and give it a good shake before you start serving it.  It tastes delicious and is perfect for those fun holiday drink recipes or just enjoying a cold glass as is.
      • Note: If you leave it out to let it thaw a little faster, don't forget to put it back in your refrigerator.
  • Is the Fun Farm + Corn Maze area open?
    • The Long Family Fun Farm is OPEN!  Saturdays & Sundays only.  Weather Permitting.  Check out our "Fall Fun" page for more information.  As long as the weather is nice, our Fun Farm activities remain open THROUGH the second weekend in November this year.  November Hours: 10 am until 5 pm.
  • Will you have the Moonlight Corn Maze this year?
    • Our Moonlight Maze is typically on Friday & Saturday nights during the last couple weekends of October.  We hope to see you for it next year.
  • Do you take bulk orders ahead of time for Cider & Donuts?
    • Yes!  Visit us in-person inside the Cider Mill at least 24 hours in advance and ask for an Order Form.  We will have your order ready for pick up at the time you specify.
  • Do you do organized Field Trips for groups?
    • Unfortunately, no.  We do not do organized field trips at this time.  However, we have plenty of space and activities for you to still bring large groups out if you wish.  There are plenty of picnic tables to use.  Hopefully, this is something we can do in the future.
  • Do you have Honey available?
    • Yes!  We have various sizes of Pure Honey available all Fall.  Did you know that local Honey not only has a great flavor but is also great for allergies?  We package our Honey in glass jars so you can keep it forever.  If it crystallizes all you have to do is loosen the lid and place the jar in hot water (NOT boiling) and let it stand until it is completely liquified again.
