With fall in full swing, some CNY apple growers suggest that consumers plan apple-picking visits based on his or her favorite apple.

Apple season has arrived, and in Central New York, the apple-picking experience won’t be one of disappointment – apple growers have been preparing all year to make sure pickers receive the taste he or she expects.

The apple-picking season runs from mid-August to mid-October. Apple growers suggest that pickers plan a visit based on their favorite type of apple.
