Applefest at Boscobel House and Gardens
*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 10/18/2025
At the time of Boscobel’s construction in the early 1800s, apples were America’s most important fruit, with thousands of varieties cultivated for cider, sustenance, and more. Boscobel’s own Heritage Apple Orchard features several of those heirloom varieties, all of which are prized today.
To celebrate the changing of the seasons and the Hudson Valley’s bountiful apple harvests, join us for a full-day of autumn food, fun, and festivities!
