Chicopee, Mass. (WWLP) – It’s September, which means it is time for all of the best fall activities like hay rides, corn mazes, football, and of course, apple picking.

Apple picking is fun for all ages, and the more apples you collect means more delicious desserts you can bake like apple pie. Western Massachusetts has an abundance of amazing apple orchards you can visit this fall:

These are just some of the great apple orchards around western Massachusetts. Now is the time of year to spend with your family, pick apples, and have a great time outdoors.
