Applefest



The aroma of freshly-baked apple pie, apple slushies and fresh pressed juice welcomed us to Hanna & Hanna Orchards Farm Market. We were there to celebrate -"APPLEFEST" on Sunday Sept. 24th a celebration of "everything apple." . Carson got to go on a hay ride and stroll through the orchard with dad picking apples. He got so excited letting out a little squeal whenever one lay in his path.
What a serene peaceful place......I enjoyed watching them make fresh apple juice, listening to the local music - Carson did his share of grooving to the music too! - and taste testing the different varieties of apples. We didn't leave empty handed and we'll definatley be back for more honey and apples.
