Westview Orchards and Cider Mill - Fall 2011

It's a strange feeling, almost mid-October and we're getting 80+ degree weather here in the mitten. Apple picking season is here and you know what that means!...delicious hot & fresh cider donuts paired with cold crisp apple cider!

It just didn't feel right to walk around the orchard in summer clothes with the sun beating down on us. I was hoping that the boot and sweater season would be here with a little chill in the air. I shouldn't complain, I'm sure we'll be in for quite a brutal winter season. The longer we can fend off the winter weather - the better!

Hailey's first cider mill experience:



Standing in line to purchase donuts and cider











Cinnamon sugar donuts


Plain is best!


Apple Fruit Flip - Pretty good!


Cider Barn


On top of a giant haystack




Picture of the corn maze - just in-case we get lost ;)



Unfortunately the weather had us pretty worn-out. We did not finish the maze nor did we get a chance to go apple picking or try the Grill on the Hill's food. If you go, plan to spend a good 5 hours out there to experience everything!

It's a great place to take the kiddos, check out the site: http://www.westvieworchards.com/
