Autumn’s return means so much deliciousness awaits us – caramel apples, apple cider, pumpkin spice lattes, and apple cider donuts (to name just a few). We have plenty of places, like bakeries, to stock up on our favorite autumn goodies, but nothing says fall, at least for me, like a visit to a farm that’s brimming with seasonal activities and treats. This 300-acre farm in Pennsylvania promises a full menu of family-friendly fun and some of the best apple cider donuts in the state.

With its many attractions, Linvilla Orchards in Media welcomes visitors year-round. But there’s just something about taking a hayride on a crisp fall day, riding a train around a one-acre track, and indulging in so many delicious treats that make an autumn visit so special. Fall’s arrival at Linvilla Orchards means the return of Pumpkinland, an epic festival that features a two-acre corn maze, a straw bale maze, pony rides, face painting, and fishing in Orchard Lake.

But Linvilla Orchards offers more than family-friendly fun. It makes fall’s favorite treats, including some of the best apple cider donuts in Pennsylvania. Apple cider donuts aren’t just made fresh daily here. They’re made all day. Each is made with fresh ingredients, including the farm’s apple cider and vegetable shortening, and topped with – chef’s kiss – cinnamon sugar. Head to Foodland to sink your teeth into one of fall’s sweetest treats and grab some to take home.

If you think the apple cider donuts are good, wait until you try the fresh apple cider from which they are made. Linvilla Orchards sells it year-round in the farm market, so you can satisfy that craving any time it hits. Keep that apple theme going with a caramel apple, a blast from the past that’s sure to whisk you back to the autumns of your childhood. Remember red candy apples? The farm has them. Save some room for roasted corn, another sweet fall treat, too.

Linvilla Grill and Café serves some mighty tasty food, from burgers and hot dogs to wood-grilled pizza, so you might want to start with a meal. Pair your food with the Harvest Float, one of the café’s newest sweet treats. Soft serve ice cream and apple cider slush are poured into a glass mug, and the float is topped with one of the farm’s famous apple cider donuts.
