Top Events Details
The annual fruit-harvesting season is by far the biggest event on the Capitol Reef calendar: visits can pick fruit from June to October, depending on which fruit are ripe. See the Fruita Orchards listing in this guide for more information. Call 435-425-3791 to reach the automated phone tree, which has the fruit hotline for flowering and harvesting information. The Capitol Reef Natural History Association also hosts an annual open house in early December, where all merchandise is half-off for the holidays.
