Apple Works


We took a trip to the local apple orchard here called Apple Works.  They don't just grow apples.  They have a small petting zoo, a barn with a big slide and rope swings, nature trails, and a shop to buy their products.  In the fall they offer field trips to explore the orchards and pumpkin patches while explaining the apple growing processes.

We went with friends and had a really good time exploring everything.  While both my kids enjoy being outside, Sami especially enjoys it and can stay outside for hours.
  
Megan wore her witch's hat and cape. 

Sami really likes feeding the animals.  She tries to "talk" to them.
This is the barn where they can explore, go down the slide,
and swing on the rope swings.

The straw bales were fun to climb.  Megan waited patiently
for her friends to climb up with her.

The sunflowers, while not a tall variety, were very pretty. 
Exploring.
