Apple Picking

Have you ever been apple picking? I keep seeing blog posts around the web weaving tales of apple picking adventures and now I'm inspired. In my life, I've been pumpkin picking, blueberry picking, and blackberry picking, but I have yet to pick my own apples. And I think it's about time I start!

Many bloggers have recommended this website where you can scout out local farms or orchards in your area to "get picking," so that's where I'm going to start!

Have you ever been apple picking?

Oh my goodness yes! Apple-picking is one of the simple pleasures of Fall in New England. We have farms all over the place, including one a quarter-mile up the road from our house, so we go often. My boys love it, the apples are insanely delicious, and the house smells of pies and crisps until the leaves are totally off the trees. Go do it!

I've never been either and I vowed to make it happen this year. I also want to go to a pumpkin patch!

I went apple picking as a child, and it's lots of fun, especially if the weather is nice!

I haven't and I really want to. Seems like a fall thing to do!

I've never been apple picking either, but it's always something I've wanted to do! Better add it to my fall bucket list.

Love apple picking! We have a great little farm close by where we can pick peaches, grapes, strawberries, pumpkins - pretty much everything. I love going there on a Sat afternoon!

I love apple picking! It's a little daunting with all the bugs but nothing beats eating a fresh apple.

My family owns an apple farm so I've certainly picked some apples in my day..but I've never picked apples for leisure, it's always been for work because I worked on the farm. When our customers come with their friends and family to pick, it looks so relaxing and so fun! I'm usually the one out at 7 in the morning on my hands and knees picking up the drops for cider pressing:P
