Onondaga, N.Y. — Each fall, Central New Yorkers lace up their duck boots, break out the buffalo plaid and head to southern Onondaga County for a favorite annual activity: apple picking.
In the rolling hills around LaFayette, Otisco and Marcellus, an area often called CNY’s Apple Valley, orchards line both sides of scenic Route 20, each offering a taste of the season and an opportunity for visitors to roll up their sleeves, grab a picking pole and get to work.
