THIS WEEKEND IN CHICAGO - September 26-27 - Time To Go Apple Picking!

By
Real Estate Agent with Dean's Team - Keller Williams Realty Partners Chicago IL

Hope you're enjoying your weekend, folks!

Just catching up, and offering an update on a favorite Fall Family Pastime in the Chicago Suburbs - heading to the orchard, and picking a bushel basket full of right-from-the tree apples!

Not much apple picking available in the City of Chicago, so you'll have to drive out a bit to find these Chicago Area Apple Orchards.  From the look on the kids' faces, however, you'll find it well worth the trip.

Here are some links of where to go apple picking locally, courtesy of our Team Member, Sue Moss.  Learn more about the following orchards, as well as many, many more to choose from (not all counties listed) --

DeKalb County:  Jonamac Orchard in Malta

Kane County:  Kuipers Family Farm in Maple Park, Pine Apple Acres in Huntley

Kendall County:  Knutson's Country Harvest in Newark

Lake CountyHeinz Orchard in Green Oaks, Ziegler's Orchard in Grayslake

McHenry County:  Homestead Orchard, Lang's Orchard, More Than Delicious Orchard, Woodstock Country Orchard all in Woodstock; Prairie Sky Orchard in Union; Royal Oak Farm Orchard in Harvard

Dean - Freshly picked apples, yum! Wish I was closer to the area so I could do this myself. I think the closest apple orchard is a 50mile road trip to Maryland.
