Apple picking is a popular outdoor activity where individuals or families visit apple orchards to harvest ripe apples directly from the trees. This seasonal event typically occurs in the fall when apples are ready for picking. Participants can choose from various apple varieties, such as Granny Smith, Fuji, and Honeycrisp, depending on the orchard. Many orchards offer a fun experience, including hayrides, farm markets, and sometimes even pumpkin picking. Apple picking not only provides fresh fruit for cooking and baking but also encourages outdoor activity and family bonding. It’s a great way to enjoy nature and learn about agriculture.
