Top Tips For Apple Picking In Rochester For Moms

• Check the weather ahead as it may get hot. Bring some sunscreen and water along.
• Be prepared to walk in grassy areas with uneven paths and possibly mud.
• If you have a little one, bring the baby body carrier instead of the stroller.
• Some farms provide bags, but bring your own reusable bags for your apples, just in case.
• A lot of farm stands do not take cards so it is always good to have cash on hand.
