Apple Picking

Did you even do "fall" correctly if you didn't go apple picking? I am still finding my go-to orchard here in NY, but had a great afternoon at Outhouse Orchards picking a huge bag of apples. I was shocked at how many apples were still hanging on the trees in mid-October, must have been a good harvest thanks to our soggy summer.
There is nothing better than fresh-picked apples. They really have a leg up on the grocery store apples and they are somehow more fun to eat! This year, I have just been munching on them, but may have to sauce a few because nothing beats locally picked homemade apple sauce.

  1. I am a fan of purchasing at orchards...but not picking anymore at my advanced age! So glad to also have orchards nearby with fresh cider, different kinds of apples, juice, and of course, pies!

  5. I am sad that we didn't get to go apple picking this year! We were just too busy. Our season runs much earlier than yours in New York. Ours runs from August to September.

  11. We always loved going to the apple orchards upstate NY in Warwick--Masker Orchard--very large and scenic. Try them next year
