Cortland Heirloom Apples showcase a charming flush of crimson over a pale yellow background, accompanied by a waxy sheen on their round and slightly flattened shape. As a varietal known for tender yet crisp flesh, these apples offer a sweet flavor with just the right amount of tartness that makes for a refreshing bite. Cultivated for generations, they capture the essence of autumnal orchards in every slice. Ideal for both raw and cooked applications, Cortland Apples excel in salads, slaws, and fruit platters as they resist browning when sliced, maintaining their appealing appearance longer. They also perform beautifully in baked goods such as pies, tarts, and crumbles, with their flesh turning soft and flavorful upon heating. Nutritious snacking options abound with these apples due to their content of dietary fiber, vitamin C, and various antioxidants.
At Fresh Harvest we prioritize working with local producers and upholding our sourcing standards. To curate the best quality and quantity of produce we will sometimes pull from a variety of producers. We look to other growing regions for those items that are impossible or difficult to consistently grow well in our region. Any produce coming from out-of-state will be clearly labelled with it's place of origin.
