We went apple picking on September 14th. It was really cool and the apples were so delicious. i have never been apple picking before but i have been pumpkin picking for a pumpkin for Halloween.
You paid for a bushel of apples which is this big bag. It was about the size of a large Walmart bag in the old days (not like the regular size bags now-a-days).
Then you rode a trackor/hay ride without the hay kinda thing to the different sections of the orchard to pick your apples. The available apples this year were: Empires, Macintoshes, Cortlands and Gallas. If you paid extra, you could choose to get Honeycrisp too. Brian and i did not elect to get Honeycrisp but Dave and Lynn did.
It was so much fun picking apples and watching everyone else pick them too. We even sampled one of each apple.
OmG the apples were so goot. i normally do not like apples unless they are Granny Smith ones, but these are…i nomnomnomnom’ed as i ate one of the Gallas. That is the only way i can describe it. The only other apple i ever liked was the Granny Smith apple.
Gallas are far better than that!
