One of our favorite autumn rituals
is apple picking at the Giese Farm.
First we walk through their backyard to the orchard
Then everone gets to work (or tasting)
Some pickers are very young
Some are not so young
Some are related to me
Some work hard
Some not so hard
When the work is finished load the truck and hike on back
Next we snack on some great treats
and play in the yard
Warm up with some chili
Chat with friends, old and new
And finally thank our gracious hosts
This year there were 63 "pickers" - amazing!

Always such a fun event! Nothing tastes better than an apple picked right off the tree!
Looks like everyone had fun and what a great way to spend a fall day. Jude
great pictures and great pickers. . . what a special fall event that we're all lucky enough to take part in. Thanks for the nice post.
Can anyone join?
That would be such a fun ritual. And what a magnificent place to gather.
This looks like so much fun! Do you get to keep some of the apples? Just looks like the perfect day :)

What a fun tradition! It looks like a GREAT time was had by all. What will you do with the apples that you picked?
Wow! I'm sure you look forward to that day all year! Your hosts are blessed with a beautiful orchard and wonderful friends!

What a fun way to spend a Fall day. It looked like pictures out of a Country Living Magazine. Think of the memories you make for the children. I think this sounds like a special event.
Looks like fun. And I love your candy corn tree in the other post; cute idea!
What a fun way to spend an afternoon! I would just love to attend an event like this one, esp. with family and friends along for the day! Thanks for sharing!
