Washington Apples

From early orchards planted in the late 1800s to today’s world-class harvests, Washington has been perfecting the apple for generations. 🍎

Still crisp, still iconic, and still the world’s finest apples.

Memorial Day is about remembering, reflecting, and gathering with gratitude. We honor those who served and the communities that continue to grow, nourish, and support one another. 🍎

We crunched the numbers.
Washington Apples add up to about 4g of fiber, vitamin C, and zero added sugar.
That's just naturally delicious math. 🍎➕❤️

🌿 Apple trees can’t pollinate themselves - they rely on bees to carry pollen from one tree to another. Crab apples, which are small and sour (not great for eating!), are planted nearby because their long-blooming flowers produce lots of pollen and attract bees, helping with cross-pollination.

Bees make apples possible! Pollination during bloom season sets the stage for the apples we enjoy later in the year. A small action with a big impact on our orchards and food system! 🍎🌸🐝
