Comments: Cider Hill Farm Peach Picking
August 28, 2007 06:09:07 PM posted by Nonna Your Dad, Uncle Matt and Aunt Elizabeth used to dread the time when their Dad would stop at the side of the road and pick pears. Bring them home and them we would freexe or can them. Nonno had a garden so we canned and froze tomatoes.
When we lived in Delaware and Uncle Matt and your Daddy were little there was a peach tree in our yard. It produced million of peaches or so it seemed. Nonna and Nonno picked, washed and froze them. I made a lot of pies and put them in the freezer and we just froze some so that pies could be made during the winter. They always tasted delicious and smelled delicious when baking.

Cider Hill Farm Peach Picking
Auntie Reanna and Grandma Cindy wanted to pick some peaches so we all met at Cider Hill Farm in Amesbury. We got a cart and let Abby and Zoë ride in it. Part of the way up the path, Abby decided she wanted to get out, but Zoë wanted to stay in... all the way up the big hill, to the top, where the peaches were. Apparently the ripe peaches had been picked already, because the majority of what we saw were not ripe yet. Next it was on to the apples. Abby and Zoë helped pick a couple, then we headed back down to the store to get some apple cider donuts while Reanna picked some more apples. Grandma Cindy got some corn while I filled up a box with a dozen donuts, plus the two we sampled, and the elephant ear Daddy got and we all nibbled on.
Next we went to get some dinner. Grandma Cindy asked the girls where they wanted to eat, and they suggested some places, but then kept talking about Bugaboo, where the moose talks. However, when we got there, there was a super long wait so we just went over to fresh city and ate at their outside tables.
Abby @ 3 years, 8 months, 4 days
Zoë @ 3 years, 8 months, 4 days
Enzo expected in 1 year, 1 month, 5 days
