Fall is so close I can smell it! Maybe that’s just all the Pumpkin Spice around me going to my head, but Fall is one of New England’s best seasons and it’s got me ready to do some apple picking. Think about it. Taking home a bushel of fresh apples that you just hand picked and turning them into pies, cider, dumplings, donuts or home made apple sauce. That’s some serious farm-to-table. No matter where you are, there’s sure to be a Pick-Your-Own Apple Orchard within driving distance. Now go out and get some apples!
