Where Fitzgerald’s Orchard is located

You'll find Fitzgerald’s Orchard just outside Tyro, in the farm country of Virginia. The setting is small-town, agricultural, and quiet, the sort of drive that feels like the trip is already part of the experience.

Set your GPS to Tyro, VA and follow the local roads out of town; small orchard signs usually mark the last stretch.

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

Best Time to Visit

Apple season at Fitzgerald’s Orchard tracks the rest of Virginia. Most fruit ripens between late August and late October. For photographers and casual pickers alike, the first three weekends of October tend to be the sweet spot, cooler mornings, changing leaves, and the widest variety selection.

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.
