well that was a fast week!
did you give a teacher an apple?
we have a fabulous selection perfect for you to pick this weekend…
still available are macintosh, gravenstein, and gingergold apples, and bartlett pears.
have a peek at the previous post for a description of these varieties.
it is the first weekend for our royal gala, honeygold and silken apples.
did you know we have a field of sunflowers this year?
it will take your breath away…
royal gala
you will love everything about galas…especially their colour!
the pinkest, girliest apple on the farm!
a sweet, smaller apple, they are mild and juicy.
they are a cross of a red delicious and a cox orange pippin.
although best eaten fresh, you can use galas for sauce, baking and drying.
honeygold
oh what a beautiful sweet, juicy apple.
similar to a golden delicious who happens to be a parent…these have a very subtle, mild flavour.
they are best eaten fresh, but you can use them for baking too.
silken
another gorgeous apple that is juicy and crisp
with a hint of honey flavour.
introduced from the beautiful okanagan valley in british columbia,
it is a cross of two favourites…sunrise and honeygold.
they are a lovely apple for baking as they hold their shape well.
you will find the silken orchard down in our valley.
