Two established local farms publish their own current picking updates. Check the day’s location, crop and rules before leaving home.
Apples · Pears · Pumpkins · Earlier-season fruit
230 Mammoth Road, Londonderry
Mack’s publishes current U-Pick crops and station details on its official page. Its picking stations can be separate from the main farm market, so follow the day’s posted directions rather than assuming every crop starts at 230 Mammoth Road.
Typical seasons include berries in early summer, peaches in August, and apples, pears and pumpkins into fall. Crop timing is weather-dependent.

59 High Range Road, Londonderry
Sunnycrest publishes crop updates for its pick-your-own fields and operates a farm market at 59 High Range Road. In fall, its seasonal corn maze is at a separate location: 114 Pillsbury Road.
Apples, pumpkins and the maze are seasonal, not year-round. Check both the picking page and maze page for the current offering and location.
These farms are outside Londonderry. Town names are shown clearly so you can judge the extra drive.

65 Broad Street, Hollis
Lull Farm’s Hollis location pairs seasonal pick-your-own apples with a farm stand and bakery. Its FAQ says its pick-your-own crops are strawberries and apples.
Apple varieties and availability change through the season. Check the current apple information rather than planning around a specific variety without confirmation.
This Concord option belongs in a longer day plan rather than a quick Londonderry-area stop.
Concord · Apples · Summer fruit · Pumpkins · Cider

Planning questions
Most local apple picking happens from late summer into fall, with the exact opening and closing dates set by each farm’s crop. Start checking official updates around late August and continue through the fall harvest.
Yes. Use each farm’s Check Today’s Picking link above or call its published hotline. Ask about the crop, variety, field location, hours and any admission or container policy.
Londonderry’s Apple Way links historic and agricultural landscapes around town. Use the official scenic-byway information and current state foliage tracker; color timing changes every year.
For many visitors from Greater Boston, the North Shore and the Merrimack Valley, yes. Londonderry is reached from I-93, and an orchard visit can pair naturally with Apple Way, a local meal or a community event. Check real-time traffic instead of relying on a fixed drive-time promise.
For pets, admission, outside food, containers and exact picking locations, follow the farm’s current policy or contact it directly.
