I'm looking for a farm near pottstown where you can pick your own apples and maybe pumpkins.
You can try Shanesville Orchard on Route 73 in Boyertown. Linvilla Orchards is also a really great time if you're willing to make the drive. We go every year and were just there last weekend.. the kids love it every time!
I don't know anything in Pottstown, but there is Milky Way Farm in Chester Springs that does pumpkin picking (no apples), Highland Orchards in West Chester where you can do both, and there's always Linvilla Orchards as well.
We have gone several times to Highland Orchards in West Chester. They have a small playground, picnic tables and a retail store. They still have a pretty good selection of apples right now, and also have raspberries and pumpkins. Here's the link.

We have also gone to Linvilla Orchards in Media. This is a much larger facility and can be really busy.Here's the link.

We go apple picking with our church every year and alternate between these two orchards.
Have fun!

If you take 100 north past boyertown to the intersection of 100 and 29....Make a left (not sure what that road is called)....Savidge Farms is a pumpkin farm that offers hayrides...tractors to climb, and alot of other stuff. I know you were wanting apples and pumpkins....but this is a really cute pumpkin farm. I think you can look them up on the internet too.
Weavers Orchard in Morgantown is great!
