Transcript

NYC Apple Picking Day Trip. Harvest Moon Farm & Orchard. Your sign to head up state for an apple picking day trip with friends. Just a little over an hour from Grand Central Station is Harvest Moon Farm & Orchard. It's the perfect place to spend the day and get outside. When I first moved to New York City, I knew I wanted to spend more time exploring things outside of the city and having other options to depart from Grand Central Station, the beautiful and iconic space in the heart of the city gets me sometimes but how I get to call this place home. This is my second annual apple picking adventure since moving here and it didn't even require a car, which is always a plus. Just head to Croton Falls, which is about 80 minutes north of the city. It's a quick five-minute taxi ride from the train station. You can even pop into Folkes Wines for a cute gift and an incredible wine and spirits collection. Or check out the farmer's market with live music, lots of flowers and fresh produce. You wanna grab apple cider donuts. They were still warm when we got them and we inhaled them so quickly I didn't even get a good photo. Grab a local cider for an apple picking 'roady' and pick your own apples and yes, peaches. One perk of going early in the season is that there are still peaches to be enjoyed. Before heading home, you relax and have lunch while enjoying the gorgeous weather. We then picked up some goodies like local maple syrup and jam in the shop before grabbing an Uber back to the train station. It's amazing what fun adventures are just a train rider away from the city that never sleeps.
