Do you know what comes in all
shades of red, green and yellows;
grown in all 50 states; is a mem-
ber of the rose family; the largest
ever picked was three pounds;
2500 varieties are grown in the
United States and 7500 varieties
grown throughout the world; and
is the 2nd most valuable fruit
grown in the United States (or-
anges are # 1)? Can you guess the
answer? If you guessed the apple,
then you arc correct! The glori-
ous apple is the subject of our col-
umn this week. Many in our area
lost their apple crop this year due
to the late cold snaps from the win-
ter season, but a few were still able
to harvest some that had been
saved from the prolonged cold
weather.
Other facts that you might like
to know about apples include:
Along with that 2500 varieties that
grown in the United States, over
100 are grown commercially;
‘many growers use dwarf trees; the
top apple producing states are
Washington, New York, Michigan,
California, Pennsylvania and Vir-
ginia (those must have been
Johnny Appleseed’s favorite
states!); apple varieties range from
the size of a cherry to as large as a
grapefruit; and apples harvested
from !an average tree can fill 20
boxes that weigh 42 pounds each.
Apples are a great source of fi-
ber pectin, with one apple having
five grams of fiber. They are fat,
sodium and cholesterol free and
one apple has only 80 calories! An
apple’s volume is 25 percent air
and that is why it floats.
Americans eat 19.6 pounds or
about 65 fresh apples every
year..........remember, an apple a
day keeps the doctor away!
The science of growing apples
is called pomology (watch out
Who Wants To Be A Million-
aire?)! The trees take four to five
years to produce their first fruit
and most apples are still picked
by hand. The average size of an
orchard in the U.S. is 50 acres.
Some trees have been known to
grow over forty feet high and liv-
ing over 100 years. America's
longest-lived apple tree was re-
portedly planted in 1647 by Peter
Stuyvesant in his Manhattan or-
chard and was still bearing fruit
when a train derailed and struck
it in 1866 (who does keep up with
this stuff?). The Father of our
country, George Washington,
himself, enjoyed a hobby of prun-
ing his apple trees.
Well, enough of the apple facts
and on with the recipes. We have
really great ones this week, so try
one or two and see what you come
up with,,„„„„see you in the
