Apple picking at the Indian Ladder farms!
Our next social event will be apple picking at the Indian Ladder farms on October 15th at 10 am. Feel free to bring your whole family, apple picking is a great activity for kids, adults and even scientists. You can also visit a mini animal farm and a farmers market filled with local goodies (their fresh cider doughnuts are amazing!). If apple picking is not for you, we can meet at the brewery (also on the farm) at 11-11:30am. Indian ladder farms is located next to Thatcher Park and we should be able to enjoy the peak of fall foliage. We will also organize a carpool to the farm via CDPA slack channel/email, please reach out if you would like to carpool or have space in your vehicle.
You can check out the prices and other information about ‘Pick your own’ apples at Indian Ladders farms here: https://www.indianladderfarms.com/pick-your-own/
What a beautiful day for apple picking!
