An Apple Orchard for Impossibly Fresh Treats
An even more personal fall tradition is cooking treats at home. Whether you picked up the hobby over the last year, or you’re a seasoned home cook with plenty of experience and treasured family recipes stashed somewhere safe, there’s no question: you cannot go wrong with a hot apple pie (or cider, or candy apples, or apple donuts, or… you get the idea). You’re gonna need a supply of crisp, fresh apples to do that, though – and only 30 minutes away is Allman Orchards. A fifth-generation farm, they offer an unbelievable variety of foods, and this will become a favorite spot for all kinds of farm-to-table meats, veggies, fruit, and other goods throughout the year!
When you come back home to Halcyon, your kitchen is more than ready to handle an apple bonanza! You can wash your bounty off in the double sink, roll out the dough on your granite countertops, and when it’s all ready, pop it into your beautiful stainless-steel oven!
