This
farm
is
beautiful
and
seems
like
a
very
well-oiled
machine.
We
went
with
friend
last
weekend
after
looking
for
a
orchard
within
driving
distance
from
Boston.
It
was
a
beautiful
day,
and
everything
seemed
very
well-organized
and
I
appreciated
the
parking
attendants
directing
everyone
where
to
go,
signage,
etc.
It
was
a
September
Saturday
so
I
do
not
blame
them
for
being
swamped,
'tis
the
season
in
New
England.
The
issue
I
DID
have
however,
was
that
every
person
age
5+
is
required
to
purchase
a
bag
to
pick
apples,
with
the
smallest
one
being
$24.
Yes,
that's
the
most
I
have
ever
paid
for
apples,
but
the
world
is
expensive
and
literally
everyone
has
had
to
raise
their
prices,
it's
just
one
of
life's
necessary
evils.
However
I
think
it's
really
disappointing
that
everyone
has
to
purchase
a
bag.
My
husband
and
I
spent
$48
right
off
the
bat
before
doing
anything
(we
have
a
2
year
old,
and
the
three
of
us
can
only
eat
so
many
apples!).
I
would
have
preferred
to
purchase
one
larger
bag
for
our
family
instead
of
us
being
forced
to
each
have
one.
Friends
we
were
with
felt
the
need
to
lie
about
their
child's
age
and
say
she
was
four
because
they
also
did
not
need
this
many
apples
for
their
family.
We
had
another
adult
friend
with
us
who
was
just
visiting
for
the
weekend
and
is
a
flight
attendant,
who
had
to
figure
out
some
way
to
transport
all
these
apples
back
with
him
only
to
fly
out
again
and
have
them
potentially
go
to
waste.
He
was
planning
on
just
coming
with
us
to
enjoy
the
day,
and
he
was
forced
to
purchase
an
entire
bag
of
apples
he
did
not
need.
I
don't
really
see
how
letting
people
walk
around
without
a
bag
and
just
enjoy
the
space
with
others
would
be
detrimental
or
cost
the
farm
any
extra
money
-
they
seemed
to
be
doing
just
fine
(and
we
did
in
fact
spend
even
more
money
getting
food,
drinks,
donuts,
etc.
I
would
have
bought
a
caramel
apple
too
-
my
favorite!
-
but
the
farm
stand
store
was
mobbed
and
literally
sold
out
of
everything).
We
had
a
nice
time,
but
it
was
truly
one
of
the
most
expensive
family
days
we've
ever
had
and
I'm
not
sure
it
was
worth
the
experience.
I
ran
into
a
coworker
while
I
was
there
who
said
she
had
been
coming
for
years
and
like
other
reviewers,
lamented
the
loss
of
the
train
and
the
playground
and
said
that
was
a
big
reason
her
family
loved
coming
there
so
much.
In
the
future,
I
would
stick
to
a
smaller
family
farm,
where
you
can
get
a
similar
experience
for
much
less
$$$
and
with
less
rigid
requirements
for
apple
picking.
