Spring Season Events at Lane Southern Orchards

Spring has sprung, so it's time to get out and enjoy this beautiful season! Lane Southern Orchards has many events perfect for you and your loved ones. We're excited to welcome you into the season with our annual spring offerings. Join in on one or all of the fun activities lined up for you, your friends and your family, including:

You-Pick Strawberry Patch

If you're looking for something sweet to enjoy this spring, stop by the Lane Southern Orchards strawberry patch in Fort Valley, Georgia. This favorite seasonal attraction is open from the second week of April through mid-May. Visit us in person to savor the warmer weather and pick your own strawberries. The patch is open Monday-Friday from 12:00-5:30 and Saturday-Sunday from 10:00-5:30.

After strawberry picking, visit our roadside market to buy fresh, strawberry-themed goodies like strawberry ice cream and bread. We offer different selections depending on the bounty and what's in season, but it will be delicious no matter what.

Local Treats

When in the mood for some good ol' Southern cooking, head over to Peach Tree Cafe and Bakery. You'll satisfy all your cravings, from soul food classics like pulled pork sandwiches and chicken salad sandwiches to fresh-baked cobbler, homemade ice cream, and huge cinnamon rolls.

Visit our shop to find even more delights to take home. We fill our pies with the freshest ingredients, including ones grown right on our property. We've got a wide variety of ciders and homemade bread to tickle your taste buds. Our offerings also include jams, jellies, preserves, syrups and butters — all made with love.

Field Trips

Students in central Georgia have plenty to celebrate! Plan a fun, educational day out of the classroom at Lane Southern Orchards. 

With our "Agriculture in the Classroom" classes, you'll find plenty of ways for your students to learn about strawberries and plant science in a fun, hands-on way. This tour lasts about an hour and includes a tour of our strawberry patch, where you and your students will learn how strawberries grow here on the farm and how you can grow your own. You'll also get to pick your strawberries, which makes for a great snack on the way home.

All our tours and activities are open to school group visits. We want you and your class to come out and see what agriculture looks like at Lane Southern Orchards!

We have two seasons for field trips, in the Spring with our Strawberries and the Fall for our Corn Maze and Hayrides. Call 800-277-3224 today to schedule your field trip!

Breakfast With the Easter Bunny

Join us for Breakfast With the Easter Bunny and experience an unforgettable morning. Guests enjoy a full breakfast and take pictures with the adorable bunny. Afterward, stop by the roadside market to pick up some Easter favorites like chocolate-covered pecans and assorted treats. Take in the beautiful weather while the kids play on our farm-themed playground. 

Other Seasonal Events at Lane Southern Orchards

At Lane Southern Orchards, we ensure you're never far from farm-fresh goodness. That's why we provide you with various events and activities throughout the year, so you can get your fill of what you love most. 

Summer

Our Fourth of July celebration will be an extravaganza this year, with music and face painting for the kids. Our Summer Farm Play Days will introduce your little ones to the joys of farming while also allowing them to experience fun and educational activities to help them develop their natural curiosity. Also, fresh Georgia peaches will be ripe this time of year, so stop by for a chance to get some for yourself!

Fall

Fall is a time of celebration as the air gets crisp and the leaves change. It is also a time of harvest and gathering when we reflect on what has passed and look forward to the future.

Embrace the autumn by darting through our corn maze or relaxing on a hayride. Our giant corn maze is full of twists and turns to keep everyone on their toes. After, our fan-favorite hayride will take you around the maze, where you can admire the beautiful scenery in all its glory.

Winter

We're excited to announce our winter farm events, including the Christmas Market and Breakfast With the Grinch and Santa. The Christmas Market will have all your holiday favorites, such as chocolate-covered pecans, and you can grab some last-minute gifts for loved ones or yourself while you're there.

Breakfast With the Grinch and Santa will take place separately in December, so chow down on a delicious breakfast buffet while you get your picture taken with your favorite Christmas characters.
