Where Cider Hill Farm is located

Cider Hill Farm is tucked into Essex County, on the outskirts of Amesbury. It's one of a handful of working apple farms in this part of the state that still opens the rows to visitors each fall.

From Amesbury center, 45 Fern Avenue is a short drive on county roads. Weekend traffic can back up near the entrance on peak fall Saturdays, arriving before 11 a.m. usually skips the wait.

Once you're in the area, downtown Amesbury has the usual stops for lunch or coffee before or after picking. Locals often pair the orchard with a bakery run or a walk through town.
