Heirloom Apples
Welcome to a world where every bite tells a story! While we all love the reliable crunch and sweetness of modern favorites like Honeycrisp or Gala, heirloom apples offer a different kind of magic. Generally defined by the industry as varieties that graced orchards prior to WWII, these "antique" fruits are living treasures gathered from every corner of the globe.
From the rugged Tien Shan mountains of Central Asia to the hidden gardens of the French countryside, heirlooms have been preserved by generations of growers for their incredible diversity. The apple's (Malus sieversii) birthplace is the wild forests of Kazakhstan, and where it's journey began along the Silk Road and then on to the rest of the world. This migration then gave birth to the myriad of apple variety diversity that has evolved through today.Β
Whether you're looking for a hint of pineapple, a splash of rosewater, or a texture perfect for the ultimate batch of cider or heritage pie, these trees bring a history as rich and complex as their legendary flavors to your orchard.
