Apple Picking in Canada

Top Spots in Canada to Stock up on Fall’s Best Tart Treats – Apples!

Late September is a time when apple orchards are pretty much begging to be ransacked by hungry families. Throw in a corn maze, a pumpkin patch and a hayride and you have yourself a dreamy weekend day trip. Because we can’t think of a better way to spend a beautiful weekend day, we’ve gone and found you a few places to get your apple picking on.

ONTARIO

Brooks Farms
Where: 122 Ashworth Rd. Mount Albert, Ontario
The Goods: Ida Red, Macintosh, Golden Delicious, Royal Gala and Honeycrisp.
Other Fun Stuff: As you will tell from their website, this farm is a firecracker of barnyard bumpkins and quirky mascots. Fun is a top priority for Brooks Farms, especially in the fall. Fall festival weekends are on until October 30th, and include train and wagon rides to the pumpkin patch, pig races, farm animals, zip lines, a pirate ship and pumpkin canons.
