Picking Fresh Apples Right in Your Neighborhood

Did you know that there is an apple orchard just a mile away from Lexington Heights? Olin's Orchard is Mendota Height's best kept secret! Located at 1140 Orchard Place, just off of Lexington Avenue between Hwy 13 and 110 (near City Hall), this orchard is super convenient and close.

Olin's will often put a sign out on Lexington pointing the way to their orchard
October is one of the best times of the year to visit an orchard, and right now Olin's has Haralson, Fireside, Honeygold, and Honeycrisp apples available. They also carry their own honey made from beehives they keep at the orchard. They sell freshly ground Honey Roast Peanut Butter made in Hastings, which is a fabulous tasty touch to the apples. You can also pick up some pumpkins for another fun fall treat! Open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., be sure to stop by and support this local business.

Olin's sells apples, honey, pumpkins, and more!
