Its apple picking season again !!! Yay !! Today was a perfect day for apple picking so we headed out to the AppleCrest Fields for their harvest festival. When we got there, it was crowded...everyone had the same idea. There was a folk band playing, and a lot of food stands set up to serve hamburgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob, ice cream and their famous apple cider donuts. They even had a tent set up for building your own scarecrow. :)
Unfortunately we had lunch before we went so we just headed right over to the apple picking field. Took a tractor ride and got right to it.
There were rows and rows of trees of the Macintosh apples.... the perfect apple for desserts because of its sweetness. So we just picked and picked...The girls were very helpful too. They helped in getting the large round ones up high. We filled our bag quickly (a peck for $15.00) and even started eating a few apples. Delicious and crunchy !
We will be back again soon... because I want to make some delicious apple cookies, muffins and even Chris' famous apple crisp. yum! :)
