Last weekend we extended our Big E vacation to include apple picking (along with the rest of Massachusetts, the place was packed!)!  But not to worry, the trees were dripping with sweet, ripe fruit!  Varieties of apples I have never even heard of before!  One of our new favorites was called the “Liberty” apple, super crisp, slightly sweet and a little tangy!

After a day of walking through the orchards, visiting farm animals and going on hay rides we got back in our car with loads of apples!
