Had a great Honeycrisp at Costco the other day...

When I was at WSU for a while, had some excellent apples there :cool: I think 25+ varieties...

Best one was I think a Yellow Transparent. They had an annual apple sale complete with unpasteurized apple cider :D

Are Gravensteins still available? I read somewhere alot of the orchards around Sonoma County were being removed to make room for Grapes.

As a kid my folks had a cabin on the Russian river and my mom would buy a case of Gravensteins and we had pies all summer long,

Seeing as I like a very crisp and slightly tart apple, my favorites in no particular order are -

Eve
Braeburn
Granny Smith

They are definitely still available around Hood River. The season is very short, though - usually just a few weeks.

I have several apple trees out in the yard. I have Red Delicious (my favorite), Jonathan apples, and Golden Delicious and Granny Smith.
I do love a good crisp apple! :D :D

I'll add a vote for Pink Lady apples as well - though Fuji's will do too if there's no Pink Ladies available.

Love Honeycrisp but for price you can't beat the Royal Gala from Costco.

General_Flyer Oct 14, 2010 3:22 pm

Fuji or give or take Granny Smith...

Fuji.
