Submitted by Rose Gordon Sala on Sun, 02/12/2017 - 10:01pm Apple Picking, Pumpkin Picking, Strawberry Picking Farms and OrchardsLong Island is blessed with a gorgeous coastline, but also plenty of farmland and rural patches where families can find farms and orchards to pick their own fruit, vegetables, and even flowers. Many of these farms offer plenty of entertainment options for kids: hay rides and corn mazes in fall, wagon rides, and barnyard animals to feed year-round. Special seasonal events, farm stores, and wine tastings make a visit to a farm a win-win for parents and kids. So whether you're looking for apples, pumpkins, strawberries, peaches, or another fruit or vegetable, read on. We've rounded up our favorite farms and orchards for Long Island families.
