How to pick apples - guide

J and I went apple picking last weekend in lower Montague, PE. Maple Farms Bert Haneveld & Son Apples offer Macintosh and Cortland apples - Cortland apples are for baking, Macintosh for eating.
It was a very nice way of spending our sunday afternoon and much more exciting than buying apples at the groceries store. J especially loved climbing trees and ladder - cute, eh? As for me, I baked my first apple pie. It was hard work (peel, core, slice) but very much worth it as the pie tasted absolutely delicious. I definitely recommend it and look forward to pumpkin picking for Halloween!

 1° Choose an apple farm.

               

 2° Make sure to stay in the right path or you will end up picking the wrong apples.

 3° Enjoy the beauty of Mother Nature.

4° Select firm and bruise-free apples and place them gently in your bag or basket. Don't wash your apples unless you are going to use them straight away.    

 5° Eat or bake to your liking.
