This is peak apple picking season!

If you’re planning an apple picking trip, we have some tips for you!

  • Once you pick your apples, don’t throw them in your basket, place them gently.
  • Don’t wash your apples too early. Wash them just before you use them.
  • When you bring your apples home, make sure you store them properly. Keep them in a cool climate (We keep ours in the basement!)

  • One half cup of apple slices is only 42 calories!

Happy Picking!
