It wasn't very helpful to have rows with multiple apple varieties and no labels on any of the trees.
One Stack Farm is a really good place to go if you want a quieter, more streamlined apple picking experience. We were the only ppl there and it didn't take very long to fill our buckets, which was actually kind of nice for a change. But if you want to take your kids to have a more classic apple picking experience with more hoopla (pumpkin patch, straw maze, farm animals, cider donuts, farmstand icecream, a general store), go to Shelburne Farms which is just down the street. Jackie and I had to stop here for some of their famous cider donuts. This is where we went apple picking last year.
Really delicious and huge (that's a size small!) pumpkin ice cream. It had a clean pumpkin flavor with a subtle hint of pumpkin pie spice. Not overwhelmingly sweet or rich or pie-tasting which I found extremely refreshing.
Pumpkin spice coffee with cinnamon sugar cider donuts (unfortunately not fresh from the fryer, but still soft and delicious)
masterful alignment skills. original. haha. cops. eat your heart out.
Dainty bite of icecream and donut. What a lady.
Most likely I'll be making a lot of apple crisps..aka the lazy man's apple pie.
