When autumn arrives in New Hampshire, there's nothing we love more than visiting the state's plentiful orchards, farms, and roadside stands. There are plenty to choose from no matter where you are in the state, but there are some things totally worth traveling for. This road trip leads to some of the best spots to find apple cider donuts, which happens to be our favorite local fall treat! Check out the details below and then click this Google maps link to get driving directions from your own starting point.
1. Windy Ridge Orchard, North Haverhill
First stop is one of the best in the state! This farm offers a great orchard to enjoy with the family, but what we love most is their cafe. There are cider donuts a-plenty, but there's also a plethora of other goodies waiting to be gobbled up. Try the pies, they're almost as good as the donuts.
2. Cider Bellies Doughnuts at Moulton Farm, Meredith
Located at Moulton Farm this fun farm stand focuses completely on donuts. And while we love the traditional variety, we especially appreciate that they offer their cider donuts in lots of unique flavors. Try the maple drizzle with pieces of bacon or load up on the chocolate sprinkle version. They're all perfect.
3. Meadow Ledge Farm, Loudon
The popularity of this New Hampshire farm can't be ignored, which is why they have to be included in this trip. But, that also means you're likely to encounter some long lines and potential sell-out if you're not there early. But, we can promise you that they're worth it.
4. Carter Hill Orchard, Concord
This wonderful farm works together with Duane Family Farm to create some of the best cider donuts around. They've got everything a good cider donut should. The perfect level of moist dough, along with just the right amount of sugar!
5. Gould Hill Farm, Colebrook
Next up is this fun little farm nestled in the mountains. The location makes it unique and the views are second-to-none. Enjoy your time exploring the grounds before loading up on these delicious donuts. Stick around a little while and order yours with ice cream!
6. Lull Farm, Hollis
And last on our delicious day trip is this fun farm. Perfect as the last stop, this is a fun place to spend some extra time. And the donuts are incredible. We especially love the maple glaze, which somehow takes the season to a whole new level.
