Go Apple-Picking In The Area

There's nothing better than locally grown apples (except maybe pies made with locally grown apples) - here's your complete guide to local orchards!

Fall = Apples.

In Hartford County, we are lucky enough to have almost two dozens orchards where we can buy locally grown apples. There are a multitude of orchards where you can pick your own – always a fun day out for the family (share your apple-picking photos on this article or in our Pics & Clips gallery). 

Tell us in the comments – what’s your favorite orchard? And please – share your favorite apple recipe as well!
