Oh, this looks fantastic!! 🍎 🥮 Come on peeps, head over to for some of The Hilltop Hearth & Tart fresh baked creations ❤️

We just dropped off a fresh batch of our Polish apple cake at Andy's Orchard today.

Loaded with Honeycrisp Apples, walnuts, cranberries, real honey, and plenty of spices.

I humbly call this “The World’s Best Apple Cake”
(After all, it was my grandmother’s recipe) 💕

Don’t take our word for it though. Go get one 😉

🍒🍑 Tasting & Tour UPDATE 🍑🍒
Mother Nature sure is in a hurry this summer.
An uncommon warm spell in March seems to have caused our stone fruit to ripen as much as 3–4 weeks earlier than normal, which means the varieties available at our 2026 Tasting & Tour events are also different than normal.
The good news is that quality of the various stone fruits remains quite high, but some of the fruits are smaller than normal.
Older orchardists have never seen such a radical change in the timing of our local fruit harvests.

❤️June 21st Tasting & Tour ❤️
Tasting – This year’s cherry crop is extremely light and 3 weeks ahead of schedule. We’ll have many varieties of cherries for the tasting portion of the event. Along with apricots and other stone fruits to sample. Including some early plums. Yum!
Orchard Fruit Picking – Unfortunately we won’t be picking cherries in the orchard (they ripened too early this year). But the good news is there will be plenty of tree ripened peaches, nectarines and apricots to pick.

🧡July 5th Tasting & Tour 🧡
Tasting – We’ll have a nice selection of apricots, peaches and nectarines to taste.
Orchard Fruit Picking -- There will be very few apricots to pick during the orchard tour. But there will be plenty of other stone fruit varieties in the orchard.

💛July 18, July 26 & Aug 15 Tasting & Tours💛
As always, there will be an abundance of outstanding fruit to taste and pick and learn about at each of our Tasting & Tour events. Because Mother Nature is ahead of schedule this year, the timing of the varieties will be different than we usually have. But all will surely be delicious!

🍒🍑 Our Tasting & Tour events are our way of connecting with our friends and neighbors by inviting them to visit and experience a working fruit orchard right here in the midst of Silicon Valley. We look forward to you joining us this summer.
