a day at the apple barn

Its a Halsey tradition that we go to Tanners apple barn ( near Peoria). This place is awesome its worth the hr drive.
There is soo much to do
the big barn full of arts and crafts and homemade yummies ( like apple cider and jams).
kids play area w/ horse rides, corn maze, sand, golf course, and Summers fav. the " blue barrel ride"
feed the goats
have the tractor take you to the apple orchirds
then a ride to the amazing pumpkin patch were you can pick any size pumpkin for 5 bucks.. the rule is if you pick it....you carry it!
this is the perfect place to go to get you in the fall spirt!!

this is what we saw on the drive to the apple barn, we saw them last yr for the 1st time and there were 3x as many as last yr.










this place is mum heaven you cant leave here w/ out picking out one...and for 8.99 you almost have too!
