Traditions. Each season has them. Picking apples is one quintessential fall activity that never grows old. There is something magical and exhilarating about walking through an orchard and choosing your own apples, always picking more than you can carry. Your head is full of apple varieties—McIntosh, Cortland, Spartan, Honeycrisp, Baldwin, Macoun, Spencer, Empire, Winesap, Fortune, Jonathan—and what delicious things you can make with them.
Orchards filled with apple trees laden with fruit are a sight to behold. Each orchard offers its own unique experience, and many offer pick-your-own fruit opportunities. Go early, and you could find additional fruits like peaches, plums, nectarines, or late-season raspberries; go later, and pumpkins might be in the mix.
