Harvest Time News

 Please Don’t Squeeze! Squeezing apples can cause bruising. Bruised apples spoil faster than unbruised.
 Keep handling to a minimum to preserve the quality of apples inside and out.
 Some apple varieties are very firm and some varieties are softer. The softer varieties bruise very easily.
 Fresh apples will have a characteristic “apple” fragrance - apples bought out of season can smell a little musty.
 Always select apples that are “in-season”. Apple Season in our area is from late-August through late October. Check with our staff to see what apples are currently being picked to be sure you are getting the freshest fruit possible!
