I can't resist sharing a few photos from our apple picking trip yesterday! It was a wonderful day! We've had a week of cold rain, so it was a relief to get out in the sun for a fun outing.
We went to
Marker-Miller Orchards in Winchester. I highly recommend them. They had pick your own apples and pumpkins, a picnic area, a fabulous playground, and a country store. And everything is free except for what you buy, which was all very reasonably priced.
We ended up picking a half bushel of apples! This is approximately 21 pounds! But at $12 for the half bushel, it was a fabulous deal ($.57/lb)!
I also figured that GiGi would want to pick a lot of apples (she did), and having driven an hour out to this orchard, I was going to make it worthwhile. Apples also keep for weeks in the fridge or in a cool basement. Apple pies, here we come!
