Apple Picking



Charlotte's preschool class had a field trip to a local apple orchard last week. The kids had fun playing in the kid's area, plus learning about how apples come to be on a tree! Interesting tidbit: the number of seeds an apple has is due to how many times a bee visited the apple blossom. After viewing the informational video, we took a hayride out to the orchards to pick some Gala apples.









After our trip to the orchard, we all gathered in the pavilion for some apple cider and apple cider donut (these are so awesome....maybe because I only eat them this time of year!) As you can see, my fruit lovin' daughter lets the donut sit while she eats one of her fresh-picked apples (the donut didn't sit there long, though.)
