An event that brings thousands to El Dorado County each fall.  Here is a great post by a fellow blogger and local contractor, Tom Arstingstall on the areas events as well as maps.  Thanks Tom!  Boy did Labor Day sneak up on us or what!

Apple Hill Ranches to open this Labor Day Weekend.

 

 

If you have lived anywhere near the El Dorado County, you have heard of Apple Hill. The Apple Hill area is home to many large apple orchards that will be open to the public beginning this Labor Day Weekend.

 

September 3rd through 5th will be the start of the Apple Hill Season.

 

What does Apple Hill have to offer? Well, apples of course. What I really mean is ALL things apple: fresh apples of every variety, apple wineries, apple pies, apple jams and jellies, apples on a stick, you name it. This is a local tourist attraction where people come from miles away to experience the Apple Hill experience.

 

 

It is conveniently located off of Highway 50, a perfect stop on your way to the Tahoe Region in the Sierras.

 

 

Here is the 2011 Apple Hill Calendar of Events

 

Once you get off the freeway, all of the orchards are nearby. You will benefit from having a map of the area. The maps, addresses are included here.

There are so many orchards the map is divided into two maps; West Map and East Map.

Hi DeeDee... "an apple a day" and such! :)  We have a huge apple event near where I grew-up.  They make the best apple pies.  And, we woud always come home with the best apples.  We actually have apples and peaches here in Southern MD.  Pretty neat. :)
