Hey y'all. Ive been away for a long time and have never really been to an orchard in NH. Always went to Russel's in Ipswich. It sounds like the area is tourist and Halloween nut central and I want.to see the best NH has to offer. Any similar places to Russel's? Great local family ran orchard, winery attached and the best apple cider donuts your face hole ever had. Lemme know your recommendation.

Applecrest is usually packed but generally worth it. Great cider donuts.

Second. Hard cider is great too.

Gould Hill Farm in Hopkinton has great cider doughnuts. No winery, but great hard cider they make there and usually good music on the weekends.

I second this. Their apple cider donuts are pretty great, and the views are amazing.

Allyson's? It's a bit late for most things.

Poverty lane orchards and patch orchards in Lebanon are both great

I live close to Macks and avoid it.

Go to Appleview Orchard in Pittsfield and get some mead across the street at the Moonlight Meadery tasting room. Has an amazing view.

It really does, such a great place to have a few drinks.

Cider Hill Farm is two minutes over the border in Amherst, MA. They have hard cider and some food as well as pick your own (but it’s getting sort of late). It was a little insane on Columbus Day but still had a good time.

Sunnycrest in Londonderry is cute. Some little goats to pet, a farm stand with a lot of homemade foods, and a variety of fruits to pick throughout seasons
