There is little more synonymous with autumn in New York than apples, and no better way to celebrate the season than with a visit to one of the state’s most charming apple orchards. If apples are your favorite fruit or fall is your favorite season, you’ll want to make the trip out to Goold Orchards this weekend — October 13th and 14th, 2018 — for their annual Apple Festival.
