Ready to bite into a crunchy apple?!
Fall is the perfect time to enjoy a day outdoors at the Oak Glen apple orchards. The weather is mild enough so that one can enjoy a complete day of apple picking at the orchard, tour the petting farm, shop and dine. There are over 30 independently owned & operated businesses in a 5 mile loop. Enjoy handpicking the best organic apples in town, order a slice of homemade apple pie ala mode. Try the freshly pressed fresh cider, buy two or more so you can share with a friend and have one to relish over the month.
As you can see Rancho Cucamonga is the most happening place to be in Southern California. To get more information, visit the website LisaDiNotoGroup.com.
