and just like that we have opened our gate again this year to invite you in!
we are picking gingergold, macintosh and silken apples.
there are a few gravensteins too.
a gorgeous, mellow, sweet early apple.
these are lovely to use in a pie or tart, because they keep their shape.
they will store in your fridge for a month.
this was my first apple of the year, picked on a recent evening with friends.
if september had a flavour,
it would be this legendary apple!
tart, crisp and juicy...perfect for a lunch box and perfect for your teacher!
macs are great for sauce too!
if you leave the skin on, your sauce will be pink!
they are wonderful for juicing and pressing for cider.
silken
oh these are just delightful!
silkens are very juicy, crisp, and sweet.
their smooth delicate skin,
and smaller size make them a snacking favourite!
gravenstein
crisp and tart with a whisper of sweetness.
another lovely apple for baking,
but not great for storing.
enjoy them while you can!
i hope your back to school week has been great.
so many changes!
be well..stay healthy
an apple a day may help!
hugs,
laura
