The 11th Annual Apple Pick’n Days

Deardorff Orchards and Parley Lake Winery are pleased to announce the 11th annual Apple Pick’n Days to support Children’s Minnesota. 10% of all apple and wine bottle purchases will fund Children’s Minnesota’s Horticultural Research Center.

Give Today. Support Tomorrows.

Whether you’re motivated by a personal experience or you simply want to support an important community resource, donating to Children’s Minnesota is a meaningful way to impact the lives of children and their families. Make a donation to Children’s.

Approximately 20% of Children’s Minnesota patients need mental health care. Those with severe needs require inpatient beds for 24/7 observation, stabilization, diagnostics, and professional care.

The sole pediatric facility in the upper Midwest that treats 6-12-year-olds in an inpatient setting is Children’s Minnesota. It has operated at full capacity since its launch last year.

As the largest integrated pediatric mental health program in the state, Children’s Minnesota will aid over 7,500 patients annually.

September 9th, 2023 – 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Event Activities

  • Tractor Rides
  • Food Trucks
  • Wine Tasting
    ……and, of course, Apple Picking!

Support Kids With Us

Plan a beautiful day with your family at our family farm! Our Orchards and Vineyards are nestled on 120 acres of pristine land near Lake Waconia, Carver Park Reserve and Parley Lake. Come enjoy our annual event with the family and help raise money for an amazing cause.

Give Local. Give To Kids.

At Children’s Minnesota, no child is ever turned away for an inability to pay. And because 47% of their patients rely on Medicaid, private facilities are not an option. With other providers closing their adolescent programs and limited inpatient programs for children under age 12, the need has never been greater.

Thanks To Our Amazing Donors

Deardorff Orchards and Parley Lake Winery would like to personally thank all of our generous donors for our 11th annual Apple Pick’n Days charity event. Apple Pick’n Days charity events have raised over $125,000 for Children’s Minnesota!
