As many of you know, I spent most of the first 40 years of my life living in a little town in Northeast Ohio called Hartford. Located right on the Pennsylvania border, that little town, or township, rather, was known for its apple orchards. As a small child, I remember elementary school field trips to the orchard (such a far walk across the road), youth group pick-your-own parties, apple festivals, trips to the nearby cider mill, and more. Through the years, many of the orchards have closed down or been sold, and last year, the last orchard went up for auction and shuttered its door. However, I’m happy to say that Hartford Orchards opened again this fall.
We stopped in at the newly reopened Hartford Orchards on Apple Festival weekend and were impressed with all they had to offer.
