Beautiful apple trees. Thanks for sharing!

Our local (Munchkey Apples) has about 9,000 trees and they are all pruned to look as if they have no branches, and the apples look ‘columnar’ on each tree. I guess that makes for easy picking for staff or those that want to pick their own.

Mom & I go there each fall and split a few pecks of different varieties for pies and sauce and such. They have good prices on ‘scratch & dent’ apples.

I buy locally and seasonally whenever I can. :)
