This past Sunday we loaded up four cars full of adults and
little people and headed out to go apple picking in East Brunswick, NJ. One of
my cousins frequents this cute little farm and recommended we give it a try.
The farm is called Giamarese Farm, and now, I too highly recommend you find
time to go with your family, extended family and some friends.
The farm is smaller than other orchards I have been to in
the past and is only open from 10-3 on Sundays, but the small size was perfect
for the little ones and meant that the adults had a little less chasing to do
and bit more time to horse around. We only spent 2.5 hours on the farm, but
that was plenty. Baby T was a little cranky-clingy but still photographed like
she was having a ball. Even though the sign said not to eat the apples we were
a little naughty and each had one while picking. Baby T spent the entire time
chewing the skin off and spitting it at anyone who came by. Next time we have
to go peach picking, she actually swallows that fruit!
The apples and produce are on the pricier side, $2 a lb for apples
and it adds up fassst, so I recommend limiting how many apples/pumpkins each
kid can pick, but we all had a great time!
