Jennifer Natale drove up to Apple Hill last Friday, Nov. 6 and found most trees at or near peak.

Conditions were expected to hold as long as the weather stayed nice.

“Larsens Apple Barn, Rainbow Orchards and El Dorado Farms had the best color,” she said. “After visiting the farms, I drove through Placerville, where the trees are definitely at peak. November is a great time to visit Apple Hill as it seems to have the best color and crowds have thinned a bit.”

She recommends checking individual farms for their hours, since some do wind down mid-month.
