Eckert's Farm, Belleville



Location: 951 S. Greenmount Rd., Belleville, IL 62220

Website: https://www.eckerts.com/

Eckert's changes throughout the year, depending on the season. They have 3 farm locations, and this farm is considered to be the main one. They also have Grafton and Millstadt which are seasonal and not open all year round. Their apple and pumpkin fests have an admission fee which gets you access to everything in the corral. 



The fun corral is a permanent fixture here and inside there are various activities, such as mini golf, sandbox, petting zoo, and pedal tractors. Most of the rides and extra activities are only operated on the weekends or during their many seasonal festivals.

They have free outdoor concerts with food trucks. They also have cooking classes, a restaurant, a cider shed, and lots of special events throughout the year.  There is another orchard really close to Eckerts called Brauetigams and it is another great option. Plus they have the best apple cider donuts and slushies!
