Munch on Apples during October’s Harvest of the Month! This month we are talking all about Apples! There are over 7,500 varieties of apples grown across the world. Some Wisconsin favorites include Gala, McIntosh, Golden Delicious, Honey Crisp, and Cortland. Did you know Wisconsin orchards produce over 49 million pounds of apples each year! Apples are full of vitamins and nutrients that help keep us healthy such as fiber, vitamin C, and potassium. In Wisconsin, apples are typically ripening and ready to pick in late August through October. Mix apple chunks into your hot cereal for a tasty addition. Try something new and have apple slices with cheese. Add thin apple slices to chicken salad or peanut butter sandwiches. Enjoy Apples this month and explore new foods!
