Red Wagon Orchard Picnics

The Red Wagon Picnic is a relaxed, self-guided group experience designed for celebrations, team outings, and gatherings. Set in a reserved, covered orchard tent, it offers a rustic, semi-private setting to enjoy at your own pace. Guests settle in with a thoughtfully prepared selection of food and cider, along with lawn games, all provided for an easy, low-touch experience—so you can focus on the moment.
