Early Season Apples
 

Zestar
Our earliest apple is bright red with greenish-yellow coloring.  Medium sized, it has a crisp, white, grainy flesh that is very juicy.  This apple is sweet  and is excellent for snacking as well as baking and sauces.  Stores in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 weeks.

This is one of the newest variety of apples developed in 1998 by the University of Minnesota.  It is a cross between the State Fair and the MN 477 apples.


Paula Red

This apple has a bright red outer skin with yellow to tan spots.  Its flesh is cream-colored, crisp-textured and has a slightly tart flavor. Excellent for baking, cooking or just as a snack.


Ginger Gold
This slightly tart apple sports a pale green outer skin with a tinge of red and a cream colored crisp textured flesh.  Excellent for baking or cooking and as a snack.

This variety was discovered on Ginger Harvey's orchard in Virginia, hence the name "Ginger Gold".  This apple happens to be a chance seedling which is unique in that it was not developed in a research center where many varieties are developed.
