growing territory? I am wondering :

1 What kinds of apples do they grow there?
2 Do they grow a lot of heirloom apples now?
3 When is apple picking time?
4 Is it possible to visit the area and find orchards that let the public in to pick apples themselves?
5 Are there other things to do in the area, so a day trip could
include a couple of nice activities like picking apples and something else to complement it?
6 Is there a boat that travels the Hudson River and makes stops at various points .... like the apple growing area, etc?



Thank you!
P.S. When to go see the apple trees in bloom? Thank you again!
