It’s time to make that transition from peaches to apples. I know, I know. A lot of you think “it’s too hot for apples,” or “I’m just not finished with peaches yet.” But here we are at the end of August, and at least 3 varieties of apples have already matured!
Ginger Gold, Gala and Honeycrisp.
So speaking as a grower, don’t put off enjoying fresh apples too long, because the “just picked” taste is best savored, well, when they are just picked.
Right now enjoy America’s #1 apple, Honeycrisp, where exceptional crunch, taste and juiciness all come together in very sophisticated layers of flavor. Dozens of customers from all over the area reserve their Honeycrisp months in advance, and others constantly email us to see when they will be ready.
Gala and Honeycrisp are now available at our farm store (open Fri-Sun 10a-5p) and at the Shepherdstown Farmer’s Market (Sun. 9a-1p).
