Fall is the time for apples, pumpkins and outdoor fun for everyone. Sutter’s Ridge Farm in Mount Horeb, owned by Matt and Julie Sutter, features a variety of you-pick crops, fun games and amazing views of the countryside.
 |
Born and Raised Matt and Julie Sutter are the third generation of Sutters to own the farm, which took on a you-pick style when they realized how much people really enjoy being on the farm and picking the fruit themselves. |
 |
An Apple a Day Apples have a very long growing season, starting with pruning in March and ending with picking in September. Sutter’s Ridge Farm offers about 20 different kinds of apples. |
 |
The Apple of His Eye A typical day for Matt Sutter includes feeding the farm animals, picking Honeycrisp apples before they fall on the ground and cleaning up the farm from the weekend before. |
 |
Sweet Treats Pumpkin bars and cider are favorites on the farm, which are also sold along with apples at the Dane County Farmers’ Market on Wednesdays and Saturdays. |
 |
Fun in the Country Sutter’s Ridge Farm is open on weekends offering apple picking, raspberry picking, wagon rides in the pumpkin patch and a three-acre corn maze. It is interactive fun for the whole family! |
