Where Little Bend Orchards is located

You'll find Little Bend Orchards just outside Ellijay, in the farm country of Gilmer County, Georgia. The setting is small-town, agricultural, and quiet, the sort of drive that feels like the trip is already part of the experience.

Most guests punch 3379 Tails Creek Road, Ellijay into their phone and let GPS do the work, the entrance is signed from the road and there's a parking area once you turn in.

Plan on making it a mini road trip. The surrounding Gilmer County back roads are worth the detour in fall color, and Ellijay itself usually has a farmers market or cider stop within a few minutes of the orchard.

Best Time to Visit

Apple season at Little Bend Orchards tracks the rest of Georgia. Most fruit ripens between late August and late October. If you can only make one trip, late September through early October gives you the best odds of finding both early and mid-season apples on the trees at the same time.

Weekend mornings between 9 a.m. and noon are the friendliest arrival window. If you can swing a weekday, Tuesday or Wednesday mornings are the quietest, some visitors report having entire rows to themselves.

What to Bring

• Cash (backup for the farm stand)
• Closed-toe walking shoes
• A light jacket or flannel
• Sunscreen and a hat
• Water bottles for the walk
• Reusable bags for the ride home
• A camera or phone charged for photos
• Small bills for cider and donuts
