Fall Activity: Apple Picking and Farmer's Market

 

On Saturday, October 2, we went apple picking at one of our local orchard farms.  We have so many in this area and they grow such a variety of things here from berries to apples to pumpkins.  The one we visited was Smith Berry Farm in Hillsboro.





It was a gorgeous afternoon - about 70 degrees with sun and beautiful blue skies.  Perfect for an afternoon out!


My husband was very excited and kept picking the "perfect apple" and putting them in our baskets.  I said, "We are going to end up with 50 lbs. of apples if we aren't careful!  He didn't believe me.  Until he went and paid and we had 34 lbs. of mainly apples with a few pears added in.  Good grief!  LOL!










Cute little family farm!  Autumn made us a fall bucket list of activities so we checked off: Go apple picking and visit a farmer's market. :)
