Gould Hill Farm

Possibly the most beautiful orchard view in New England, with vistas as far as the White Mountains. When you turn your attention back to the trees, you’ll find 80-plus apple cultivars tended by owners Tim and Amy Bassett. One variety especially worth noting: ‘Hampshire’, a tree that sprang up from seed on this very farm and, with its abundant juice and rich flavor, makes a great pie. 656 Gould Hill Road, Contoocook, NH. 603-746-3811; gouldhillfarm.com
