Afternoon in the Apple Orchard

We spent the afternoon hours at another one of my favorite places…Lynd’s Fruit Farm. Just north of Columbus in Pataskala, the Lynd Farm is famous for its pick-your-own orchard and its amazing vegetables, jams, jellies, baked goods, and corn maze. We took nearly a hundred pictures but thought I’d share a few of my favorites here…

That’s right. I went there. Don’t judge me.

Kyle carting around our spoils. Among them: a gigant-o bag of fresh kettle corn, three pumpkins, a jug of cider, and two jars of jam. Cause when we go Lynd’s, we go crazy.

It was an awesome Saturday and I now I have a big bag of fresh-picked apples to turn into applesauce. I’ll post the recipe if anyone would like it.

What about you? What are you doing to dive into fall? And, more importantly, do you want to win this hand-knit scarf to help you celebrate? Giveaway is open until Thursday night…

love, elizabeth

    Nom nom nom applesauce. I love apples. And pumpkins. We're hopefully going to have a pumpkin-carving contest this year. I think I'm going to try a panda...

    I wish we got to do things like that in Florida! Alas, I think I'll have to settle for picking coconuts...

    And I am REALLY jealous of your apple cider. Like, really.

    That picture of you holding the apple looks like it should be a book cover or something... for a book called "Dusk" or something.
