Tuttle Orchard Fall field trip

Field trip includes educational tour, cider sample, maze and playground admittance, you-pick apples, a pumpkin and a hayride. Please arrive at 9:20 so we can gather and check in before the start time. Bring a lunch (they also have delicious food available at their cafe) because we will be planning to stay and do the maze and play at Tractor Town after our tour is over. $12 per participant (babies are free unless they need their own apples and pumpkin). This was a  lot of fun last year and a great bang for your buck if your family plans on going to Tuttle this year.
