As the days grow a bit shorter and the crispness of fall settles into the air, I find myself reminiscing about our annual family tradition of apple picking at Frecon Farms in Boyertown, Pennsylvania. The laughter of my kids as they reach for the juiciest apples, the warmth of their hands clutching homemade cider and the sweet, cinnamon-spiced apple cider donuts–it’s truly a delightful memory I cherish every year.
