Fall Apple Picking

(Highland, NY)

2026

Children at the apple picking event.

Ten families from across the Hudson Valley gathered on October 25th for a beautiful morning of apple picking and connection at DuBois Farms in Highland. We enjoyed a tractor ride and playtime at the Farm’s picnic and play area where families could discuss and share resources (and apple cider donuts!)

Many thanks to Alice from Mid Hudson HLAA for volunteering and telling families about the upcoming emergency preparedness workshop that is geared especially towards the local Deaf community! This event was also made possible by NY EHDI (Early Hearing Detection & Intervention) and Hands and Voices of New York.
