After applegeddon last season, we were expecting a light year in '24. But no! Amazingly, there's another heavy crop of nearly all varieties of apples this year!

The apple lineup in order of first to last in the season.
Pristine
Late July-Early August. Yellow, very juicy. Absolute best pie apple out there. Juicy!
Redfree
Early August right after Pristines. Big '24 crop. Amazingly sweet for an early apple.
Prima
Similar to Summer Rambo. Mid- August. Somewhat tart complex flavor. Light '24 crop.
Liberty
Our main season apple for decades. Purplish color with crisp white sweet/tart flesh. End of August-September. Similar to a McIntosh. Tastes like an apple should! Crunch!
Crimson Crisp
Red as the name suggests! Sweet subacid goodness comes in late early September. Smaller apples in '24.
Jonafree
Mid-September-October. Similar to the old standard-- Jonathan. Sweet and deep red with yellowish flesh. Some think these make the best applesauce--with reddish tinge. Bears tremendous loads.
Goldrush
Last apple to mature—mid to late November. Incredible, complex flavor. Highest brix (sugar) yet brings so much flavor along with it! Our favorite. Will store until spring.
