Eckert's has three Illinois locations, the Belleville Farm, the Millstadt Farm and the Grafton Farm. Eckert's has the great distinction as being the largest pick-your-own orchard operation in the United States. Visiting Eckert's is a fun way to spend a day for the whole family! In addition to riding the wagons out into the fields to pick your own fruits, vegetables or Christmas tree, seasonal activities include hayrides, craft making, wreath making, and photo contests.
