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
