Wisconsin Originals
These are trees with roots here—literally.
The Wisconsin Originals collection features fruit tree varieties that were developed, selected, or proven in Wisconsin’s climate. Bred for cold hardiness, resilience, and real-world performance, these trees didn’t come from test plots in mild regions—they earned their place in northern orchards.
Expect bold flavor, dependable production, and varieties that have fed families, wildlife, and communities across the Upper Midwest for generations.
Included Varieties:
-
Wolf River Apple – A Wisconsin legend. Huge fruit. Cold-hardy. Unapologetically robust.
-
Bonnie’s Best Apple – Reliable, productive, and well-suited to northern growers.
-
Duchess of Oldenburg Apple – Early-bearing, tart-sweet, and famously hardy.
-
Northwest Greening Apple – A classic keeper apple built for long winters and storage.
