Seventh-generation orchard and country store outside St. Louis with year-round festivals, pick-your-own fruit, and on-site dining.

Eckert's Belleville Farm is the seventh-generation Eckert family operation in Belleville, Illinois — about 25 minutes east of downtown St. Louis — and one of the longest-running family orchards in the Midwest. The Belleville location is the largest of three Eckert's properties (others in Grafton, IL and Versailles, KY), with strawberries (May-June), peaches (July-August), apples (August-October), tulips (April), and pumpkins (October) plus a year-round restaurant, bakery, and country store. The farm's signature: 'pick-your-own + restaurant + retail' all on one property, family-friendly weekends, and a packed festival calendar.

What to expect

Drive 25 minutes east of St. Louis on I-64. Park at the main farm entrance. Pick-your-own field varies by season — pumpkins in October are the biggest draw. Hayrides ($5-10), wagon rides, the on-site restaurant (sit-down meals, not just snacks), and the farm store with fresh-baked goods are all included on the property. Closed Mondays. Plan 3-4 hours for a typical family visit. Reservations not required for picking but advised for the restaurant on weekends.

What to bring

  • Check the farm’s field report before you leave—popular crops can sell out daily.
  • Apply sunscreen and bug spray at the car so it has time to set.
  • Carry reusable water bottles; many farms offer refill stations.
