Spring is a beautiful time in Apple Hills, the skies are blue and the leaves are swaying in the trees in fall. It is time to indulge in the smells of the season when tourists are escaping the big city and coming to our picturesque village.
From apple trees bearing fruits to fields of pumpkin, there are aromas of beers and frothy mugs of mulled cider at every turn. As a result, continue reading before you look for exploring the apple hills.
Return To The Apple Fields
Through the beautiful and natural elements of apple orchards lining the curvy country roads, Apple Hills gained popularity. With the arrival of the Fall, selected fruits like apples and squeezed juices like ciders fill the air of the fields.
Tourists can walk through nature paths and watch restored wooden barns while sampling apples in wooden booths. Take a big bite from a Mutsu and get the texture, or take a sip of cinnamon from a Honeycrisp.
Amish farmers masterfully tend these timeless heirloom fruits, balance tradition and continuation of it to the city folks, who are happy to receive these fruits year after year.
Pumpkin Spiced And Everything Nice
Pumpkin farming occurs from mid-September to late October where bright orange pumpkins are visible in farms of Apple Hills. Pumpkin patches with morning hayrides are suitable for families with children, and children can choose their pumpkin carving models from vast fields of pumpkins.
After that, adults congregate by the crackling fires and taste the pumpkin pies, breads, and other foods seasoned with cinnamon, nutmeg, and all other kinds of warm autumn spices.
The sweet smell of pumpkin pervades our beautiful countryside and country roads. Tourists appreciate pumpkin creations offered in bistros, microbreweries, and coffee shops during the autumn season.
Adventurous Autumn: Cider, Donuts, And Leaf Piles
Besides apples and pumpkins, locals also celebrate the magic scent: I thought it was strange that they were serving donuts with apple cider which already has salted caramel in it, but the fusion worked great!
Cohesive and candied on the outside with a tender and doughy center, the families relish these fluffy mounds by the camp fire or enshrouded in deep, orange, and red shades of foliage that carpet back country meadows.
Fried to golden perfection, the offerings blend together into an ode to the season of apple cider, warm donuts and crunchy fall leaves, as visitors get to re-live the sensory pleasures of the season.
Campfire And Comfort Food
When the sun goes down, the wild grasslands become a canvas for fire, stories, and camaraderie. People sing and play on acoustic guitars and other natives toast marshmallows until they turn into golden brown.
Rich sweetish aroma of woodsmoke blends with the BBQ ribs, thick delicious stews, macaroni & cheese, apple hand pies and other such comfort foods.
Satisfying comfort foods not only nourish families but also energize them after they spend hours going through apple orchards, watching the autumn foliage, or visiting a pumpkin farm.
Free Flying Country Air And Carefree Days
Apart from aroma of crispiness associated with Autumn season, fresh country air in Apple Hills has healing qualities. Sharp and clean, each rising current bears elemental freshness from the forest floor where leaves whisper ceaselessly.
Sultry scents transition from wet grass after an afternoon downpour to gentle fragrances of pine and maple blowing through narrow roads with curves. Summertime and the living are easy as we walk along the outskirts of paved roads away from packed highways.
With the lungs filled in fresh air of the fall we leave the urban jungle behind us and wake up senses. Disquiet wanes as does gold in meadows, innocence rises from the grave where it was buried, and it was buried deep.
Conclusion

These two scents are our best sellers during the autumn and they reflect the tale of this stunning town. Apple Hills invites guests to enjoy the harvest season and create first smells in the car drives that are not so typical for a country area.
