Ski Hi Apple Orchard in Wisconsin

We spent Fall Break in Wisconsin again this year and it was lovely.  Crisp and cool with the prettiest Fall colors.  We zoomed out of town right after school on a Friday and pulled into the resort about 12:30am that night.

We headed to Ski Hi Orchard (pronounced sky high) on Saturday morning and had the best time.  The weather was Fall perfection and we felt confident picking apples since we had been there before.   We skipped the pricey wagon ride through the orchard and focused on picking apples and eating apple treats.

Real life: I found someone to take our picture and Leo refused to hop in the shot.

The kids picked fast and ate apples along the way.  I think we came home with 4 or 5 different kinds of apples.  Honeycrisp is our favorite.  Golden Delicious next.  And a few Jonathan and one other.  Yum!  We have big plans to make an apple pie as long as we don't eat all the apples first.

We purchased apple cider donuts, apple cider, Ski Hi merch, caramel syrup, caramels, and more.  It's the cutest orchard with yummy products at every turn.  We enjoyed apple cider donuts on site as well as for breakfast back at our condo.

The boys could have stayed all day to enjoy the petting zoo/farm animals and the tractor to play on.  Bring quarters so you can get animal treats out of the machine.  I had everything but a quarter.  Thankfully, some other moms shared their feed with the kids.

So dang cute.
So dang opinionated.
Refused the family picture.
Asked for many silly solo pictures in the orchard.







We picked first and then headed across the street to the apple orchard shop.  Matching hooded sweatshirts for all the kids.



The animals are the cutest.  This fuzzy cow could have come home with us.


Leo was very into the vehicles.


Did I mention that we had so much fun we went twice??  Once to pick apples and once to refill our apple snacks.


Our favorite way to spend a Fall day!

If you ever find yourself in The Dells in the Fall, definitely head to Ski Hi to pick apples on the weekends.
