It may
not be summer anymore, but, we sure do have some enjoyable weather
this time of year, here in Boston,
MA. As we settle into
a gorgeous autumn, a local Bostonian favorite is to visit the nearby
farms and to share in the local bounty along with some fun on the
side. Apple picking is a great way to visit a farm, get some local
produce, and have a great time. It's not just about apples either,
many have pumpkin patches, other fresh produce and baked goods, and
some have farm animals. Apple picking is a great way to support your
local farms. Below are some of the
best the
Boston, MA area has to
offer.
Tougas
Family Farm
Tougas
Family Farm is open Tuesday-Sunday from 10am-5pm. Current
selection includes McIntosh, Gala, Fuji, Cortland, and Ginger Gold.
In addition to the picking there are also hay rides and pumpkin
picking. Farm animals, fresh baked goods, and apple cider donuts
complete the fun! Located at 234 Ball St., Northboro, MA.
Russell
Orchards
Just
35 miles north of Boston is the family owned farm, Russell
Orchards. Hayrides and pick your own is in full swing at Russell
Orchards. Cortland, Gala, and McIntosh are currently ripe for the
picking. In the store you can also take your pick of a selection of
fruits and vegetables from the garden. Located at 143 Argilla Road,
Ipswich, MA.
Nashoba
Valley Winery and Orchard
Nashoba
Valley Winery has fun for the whole family with both local
produce and apple picking, a restaurant, and of course, wine.
Currently available for picking are Pioneer Macs, Nashoba Macs,
Liberty, and Gala. Open daily at 9:30 am for picking and 10 am for
the winery. Located at 100 Wattaquadoc Hill Road, Boston, MA.
There
are several pick-your-own
farms in the Boston,
MA
area,
for fresh produce year long, not just during apple picking season. I
hope you enjoy this beautiful autumn season and are able to get out
and support some of these local farms. Please know, a Boston

MA
