Apples
Apples are one of the most diverse tree fruits, with thousands of varieties ranging from very sweet to tart, crisp to tender, and eating apples to varieties best suited for cooking or cider. Skin colors include red, green, yellow, and combinations of these. Many varieties also store well, making locally grown apples available well beyond harvest season.

Choosing
Choose apples that feel firm and heavy for their size with smooth, unbroken skin. The appropriate firmness depends on the variety and intended use. Avoid apples with deep bruises, soft spots, shriveled skin, or signs of decay.
For eating fresh, look for varieties known for crispness and sweetness. For baking, choose apples that hold their shape when cooked.
