Apple Country’s favorite little escape, Oak Glen is only an hour from Los Angeles, where you can take a horse-drawn wagon ride through apple orchards, spend the day hand-picking fresh apples, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday through November, and enjoy fresh baked apple treats at one of the family restaurants. An Apple Butter Festival takes place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 28-30 with hands-on demonstration of apple butter making, pioneer crafts, games, music and carriage rides.
