Oh, those apples look so wonderful!! I just love apples! Eating them, cooking them, preserving them every which way is great. Currently, I am reading a book written by a man who has spent his life in central Maine learning about and preserving apple varieties from yards and small farm orchards. The book is Not Far from the Tree by John Bunker and it is full of diagrams about family farms and which apple varieties are located on each farm. This book is totally fascinating to an apple geek like me!
HI Winnie,
If you are an ” apple geek” be sure to also read another book called ” Taste, Memory” ( forgotten foods lost flavors, and why they matter ) by David Buchanan, where he talks with John Bunker among others about heirloom apples, and so much more.

Mmm, they look so sweet! I’d pick them off our trees and make some great applesauce, I had to get them before the deer spotted them and I’m still amazed at how high a deer will stretch almost climb to get a tasty treat.
Since apples are one of the most attacked of our fruits with pesticides, and are fed so readily to our little children and big children, it is nice to know we can access the purer version and that so many people still honor and idolize the fabulous fruit. AMERICAN to the core…
