Apple Pickin'

Who would pay at least twice as much for produce that you have to drive a half an hour to get to and then PICK YOURSELF??? All of New England, apparently. Yesterday we decided to take the kids apple picking at a local farm. Let me tell you, even for "apple fest" I thought the place was insanely busy. Luckily, there was still room to run around a little, pick a peck, ride the hayride, picnic by the pond, and see all the animals without too much crowd fighting. We were home in time for nap with a car full of apples and two very sleepy kids AND, now they know where apples come from.
