On a recent sunny Sunday, families enjoyed a host of activities.

There were lots of apples to choose from, of course -- Cortland and Macoun are in season at the moment -- along with a market full of homemade goodies, a pumpkin patch and an animal farm.

The orchard is open from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily; weekend scenic tractor rides begin later this fall.

More information: 451 Sport Hill Rd., (203) 261-3306, www.silvermansfarm.com/.

The Silverman's website even has a video for picking the perfect apple.
