It’s the 3rd week of August. I go peach and apple picking annually at various orchards, but today was the best peach picking of all time. It was so enjoyable! I’ve been here 3 times now over the last few years for peaches, and this orchard is very quiet and well maintained - a very idyllic and peaceful location to pick fruit to your heart’s content. $3.25/lb for pick your own peaches, which, to me, is a very fair price for beautiful, delicious, fresh fruit straight off the tree. Both the yellow and white peaches were HUGE today - picked one white peach that was the size of a small pumpkin. I’d highly recommend this orchard and will definitely be back for apples in a month or so. Officially my favorite orchard now for peach picking!

October 5th update: tons of apples, farm fresh eggs, and honey from hives on the farm. Another successful visit to the orchard! I’m not a huge fan of Macintosh style apples, which is what seems to mostly be ripe this week, but there were some really gorgeous golden delicious apples out there and some variety I don’t know with some more blush on them….Crisp, crunchy, and juicy. I’m pretty sure we picked more than a hundred pounds of apples haha. I love how peaceful and quiet the orchard is, and the owners are so lovely. Worth the trek from NYC.
