visitor tips
Get the Most Out of Your Trip to Apple Hill Grower Farms BEFORE YOUR VISIT Check the weather for Camino, CA, before heading out. • Dress in layers so that you will be comfortable regardless of changes in weather. • Wear comfortable walking shoes for access on uneven dirt and gravel surfaces in outdoor and parking areas. • Bring water and sunscreen for summer/fall trips as foothill temps can reach 100 degrees. • Bring an ice chest if you plan to purchase refrigerated or frozen items. • Bring cash as many ranches take only cash and credit card systems do not function when wifi is down. DURING YOUR VISIT Drive to and park at each individual farm. • Do not park or walk on county roads. These narrow roads have no shoulder and are dangerous for parked vehicles and pedestrians. • Do not leave your vehicle long term parked at individual ranches taking up limited space needed for other customers. • Use CalTrans designated Park and Ride Lots for long term parking. • Respect opening and closing times at individual ranches, • Dogs – welcome at some ranches in outdoor areas – must be kept on leash. Dogs are not allowed (except service dogs) in indoor food service areas. Owners must clean up after their dogs. • To avoid traffic congestion consider planning your visit Monday – Friday avoiding the busy Sept., Oct., and Nov. weekends. AFTER YOUR VISIT Allow enough time to travel back down the hill. Traffic becomes congested through Placerville especially on weekends.
The Apple Hill Grower ranches appreciate your continued support and we hope you have a wonderful visit!
