What this puzzle is about

Orchard Harvest is a medium word search set among the fruit trees. Ten words are hidden in a 14 × 14 grid: the fruit (APPLE, PEAR, and PLUM), the TREE, a BRANCH, a LEAF, and a SEED, plus the BASKET, the HARVEST itself, and CIDER. Each word runs in a straight line in one of eight directions, including backward and diagonally.

Who it suits

Medium puzzles use a 14 × 14 grid with ten words. Half the words here are only four letters long, which makes the end of the hunt trickier than the start, so it suits older kids and adults who like a steady challenge. It makes a nice fall activity and pairs well with The Orchard Walk logic grid.

How to start

Start with HARVEST. It is the only word with a V, so scanning for V is a fast way in. BASKET is the only word with a K. Leave the four-letter words for last, and watch out for TREE and SEED, which both end in EE.

About the words

HARVEST is the longest word, at seven letters, and BRANCH and BASKET follow at six. Five words have only four letters: PEAR, PLUM, TREE, LEAF, and SEED. Three words have double letters: APPLE (PP), TREE (EE), and SEED (EE).
