I asked what the difference
between Michigan and Washington apples was. And the answer I got was, “taste.”
“Climate coupled with soil
and abundance of water is the reason for the difference in taste,” said to Cam
Harrington, Account Manager of Michigan Apples.
According to Harrington, in
eight out of ten blind taste tests, Michigan apples will walk away with the
award for best taste.
He added the favorite apple for
making pie among Michigan chefs was Northern Spy because it is low in sugar
and has a good consistency when cooked.

apples and other that grow in this State go to www.MichiganApples.com
