We did our apple picking a bit earlier this year because we thought my stem cell transplant was going to be Oct 11. We had a large group participate with us this year - Tammy and I, Lizzy and Stas, Rachelle and Alan, AJ and Vania, and the VT grandparents. We took two cars to get to Johnny Appleseed with Rachelle and Alan's vehicle getting lost for about 40 minutes.
Tammy and I picked the six variety of apples that were available for the pies and crisps we make each year. The whole gang helped with the peeling, cutting, mixing, making of 8 apple pies, 4 crisps, and the freezing of 9 bags of prepared apple filling (enough to make another 18 pies), and the cleaning up.
Below is the link to see a few pictures of the day.
