This past Sunday we drove an hour and half north to pick apples, pumpkins and even donuts(!). We wouldn't make this trek for just any donuts apples, oh no, this was specifically for Cider Hill Farm apples. I can't say enough about this working 145 acre farm. I'm consistantly amazed at how much Cider Hill Farm offers, and for the mere price of your purchases. My children have yet to tire of their visits here, and mama has yet to tire of their top quality foods offered inside the food barn. For a little glimpse inside the farm
there's apple + peach picking this time of year and the selection is beyond words
the chicken house houses not only chickens but also rides for the little chicks;)
corn fields...as far as the eye can see.. this one turned into a maze!
it's a hike up to the apple + peach fields, but if you get tired along the way do what this young hitch hiker did + flag down the hayride tractor!
Pumpkins you're looking for?
There are a few.
Mums? Many more than you can ever imagine!
and at the end of the day step into the farm store located in the old dairy barn and wait in line for the freshly made cider donuts, served hot. Yes, I said wait in line, because it's often quite the wait, but oh so worth it. Ask these happy customers
there is nothing like locally grown food, and i have 17lbs of apples to prove it. support your local farms and by all means visit cider hill farm in amesbury,massachusetts, open now until thanksgiving.
