A trip to Jeter Mountain Farm is the way we like to start the fall season, and this year we had the chance to bring my grandfather along to see the farm. While my grandfather and mom stayed back at the main buildings while my sister and I took my nieces to pick apples. This year we went nearly around the entire farm to get to part of the orchard where we would be picking our apples this year. We had so many delicious options to choose from including Golden and Red Delicious, Gala and Winecrisp.
Both of the girls were so excited to discover apples clustered deep within the trees inner branches, while following the rules of the farm, ‘pay attention to the white string to avoid ground hornets’ and ‘if you don’t like how the apple tastes throw it at the base of the tree.’
Cecileia was quite the expert at finding apples, and once she’d filled our shared basket, she helped her sister, Charlotte, and her mom fill theirs as well.
Very proud of her Golden Delicious find.
