Get ye to Parlee

Have you been up to Parlee Farms this year? Today, you can pick your own apples, flowers and raspberries, or at the Farmstand, they still have fresh peaches as well as apples, blueberries, strawberries and corn. The rarity of a fresh, local peach is something that I have come to cherish, and I’ll go a ways out of my way to get one. I always get a sense of peace and serenity just turning down Farwell Road, lined with stone walls and overhung with trees, it’s like going back in time 30 or so years, then rounding the corner to the welcoming sight of the farm and fields – so much ordered prosperity delights the eye. (It’s a great place to bring the kids, too – they have hayrides, homemade ice cream, fresh donuts and animals!)
