From the feedback I gathered from the my followers on Long Island, this was the overwhelming favorite of all farms.
"Best to arrive early. Busiest time is between 1-3"
"Five minutes away from Seven Ponds Orchard (apple picking) and close to the Milk Pail (apple picking...people allege it is expensive)."
