There are not many autumn activites that compare to reaching up into an apple tree, pulling down a choice Mac and biting into it as the breeze of Indian Summer rustles the leaves around you. The Heart of New Hampshire offers quite a few orchards where you can pick your own apples. Our adventurous team piled into two vehicles with friends and family and headed for the Surowiec Farm in Sanbornton for our adventure, but you can pick the orchard of your choice from our list right here . The workshop runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Featured speakers include Richard Miller, formerly of the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Art Center in Williamburg, Virginia, and Merilee Possner of Northeast Auctions in Portsmouth. Collector Don Randall, of Contoocook, will present silhouettes from his collection of folk art.
Lunch is included.
