Here’s Where You Need To Go For The Best Apple Picking in NJ
Fall is such a great time of year in New Jersey.
The weather changes (usually) so it's feels good to be outside, enjoying the cooler temperatures. There are so many fun things to do like pumpkin picking, painting and carving, corn mazes, hayrides, the Scarecrow Festival at Peddler's Village, haunted attractions, leaf peeping and APPLE PICKING.
Some will argue that apple is the flavor of choice for the season and NOT pumpkin spice, even though that what's talked about more.
I never realized until I went apple picking for the first time a few years ago just how many different types of apples there are...whoa...there are a lot. My favorite are the Pink Lady apples. Yum.
Once you've picked them there are so many things you can do with them. You can make apple pie, baked apples, apple crisps, slice them and dip them in peanut butter, make an apple, granola and peanut butter sandwich, smoothies, soup...there are so many options. Your dog can even eat apples...they're good for them, providing them with important vitamins.
Besides eating them, apples can be simmered to make your house smell really good, made into a centerpiece, a face mask, ornaments, candle holders...the possibilities are endless.
Apple picking can be a really cute date too. You can take a hayride to pick them, then go home and cook, bake or craft together.
