9th Annual Apple Blossom Bash
June 4-5, 2011 |
Thank you to all who attended. This year was a huge success! We raised close to $1,000
for the Civitan Club of Pittsfield and enjoyed the music of Justin Allen and Friends on two
quintessentially gorgeous spring days in the Berkshires. |
Thank you to all our staff at Hilltop Orchards, a few are captured below... |
7th Annual Apple Blossom Bash
June 6 & 7, 2009 |
|
| |
Thank you to all who attended, we met lots of new people and had our largest attendance ever! The Justin Allen Trio's music was again the perfect accompaniment to the delicious wine and hors d'oeuvres. The unusual Spring weather meant that we didn't hit the peak of the apple blossoms in bloom but we sure did have glorious weather. We think we may have the Bash in June from now on...
