The End of Apple Season








































As we enter the second half of October, we're fast approaching the end of apple season in southern Maine. We took advantage of another beautiful weekend to visit two orchards, Thompson's Orchard in New Gloucester, and Hansel's Orchard in North Yarmouth. While Thompson's was picked nearly clean (they have excellent apple cider doughnuts, though), Hansel's still had plenty of trees weighed down with perfect apples.
