Picking Your Own Apples - Where to Go in Harvard


It's Fall, the real estate market is slowing for the season, the air is crisper, and the sun just glimmers. This time each year I enjoy my seasonal apple obsession. Drawn to the local orchards and farm stands, I keep an eye out for the best varieties of apples to use for baking apple pies. I am still perfecting techniques and working towards that day when the cook book is left on the shelf and I am able to create my baking from memory!

Everyone should know that there are a number of quality local orchards to visit and make for a wonderfully idyllic afternoon. Orchards offering "pick your own" experiences, in the town of Harvard are compiled by the Harvard Conservation Trust in a handy flyer at left. Please call before you set out, to ensure the orchard you are interested in visiting is open. Harvard Conservation Trust Flyer.
