Where Jenschke Orchards is located

You'll find Jenschke Orchards just outside Fredericksburg, in the farm country of Gillespie County, Texas. The setting is small-town, agricultural, and quiet, the sort of drive that feels like the trip is already part of the experience.

From Fredericksburg center, 8301 U.S. 290 is a short drive on county roads. Weekend traffic can back up near the entrance on peak fall Saturdays, arriving before 11 a.m. usually skips the wait.

Nearby you'll find the kind of scenery Texas does well in October, farm stands, rural churches, and roads lined with maples turning red. It's a solid half-day out even without leaving Fredericksburg.

Best Time to Visit

Apple season at Jenschke Orchards tracks the rest of Texas. 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.
