"An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Nearly everyone is familiar with this old adage, and it turns out there is some truth to it.

Autumn is the peak of apple season. Whether you prefer to pick your own or buy yours from the grocery store, we've got a bushel of delicious recipes and fun crafts for you to try this season!
