Search Sonora California

Sierra Glen Ranch is one of Tuolumne County's oldest farming establishments. The Ranch is located at an elevation of 3600 feet, overlooking the great Central Valley.

The Sierra Glen Apple Ranch harvest begins with berries and cherries in mid-June and nectarines, pears and peaches finish out the summer. All of the fruit is available already picked, or you can pick your own for a better price.

The fall apple season starts Labor Day Weekend. The Ranch features 18 varieties of apples. Fresh squeezed apple cider, homemade pies and pastries, jams and jellies are all available at the Sierra Glen Apple Ranch.

In the fall the Ranch is available for weekend wagon rides and school tours.

The ranch ends the harvest season with Choose and Cut Christmas Trees.

This was also the site of an episode of the beloved television show "Little House on the Prairie."
