Apple Orchards... Visiting one has always been on my autumn bucket list, but living in Texas, not something I had ever been able to check off. I'd like to blame the completely unpredictable weather & terrible soil conditions.
Then moving to Arizona happened.
We heard about Apple Annie's shortly after moving to Arizona & quickly added to our activities list. It's about an hour and half east (ish) from us & the weather is much different than where we are in Tucson, so it's a nice retreat for the day. It was about 15 degrees cooler the day we went & holy gosh, it was glorious.
Apple Annie's is actually two locations, one with the orchards & the other with vegetable fields & pumpkin patch; only separated by a few miles. We did both a couple of weekends ago, but I only got really good photos at the orchards, because well, I was completely smitten with all the gourds and pumpkins.
Some photos from our day:
Top notch picking skills. I am still working through all the apples and pears that we picked.
Besides picking, they have food for purchases, including their super tasty, hot & fresh cider doughnuts. I ate way too many & have been thinking about them ever since.
If you are in the area, be sure to stop by for a visit. Picking supplies are provided: wagons, wheelbarrows, clippers, produce bags.
