Gala: A cross between Golden Delicious and Kidd’s orange-red apples, the Gala boasts a sweet flavor with hints of vanilla and has a floral aroma. On the outside, Gala apples are round, with a pale golden yellow background and stripy red blush covering them. On the inside, these apples are firm and crisp with a slightly yellow to cream hue. Gala apples have an early harvest date and are generally a bit smaller in size than most other apple varieties which means they are great for kids and for snacking. 

Uses: Snacking, Salads, Juicing, Baking, Freezing

Organic Granny Smith: This Australian gem has been around since 1868. Discovered as a chance seedling by Maria Ann (Granny) Smith, Granny Smith is one of the most well-known apple varieties thanks to its bright green color and tart flavor. These apples are known for their firm, medium grain, bright white flesh that resists browning when sliced, and strong tartness resembling that of a lemon.

Uses: Eating fresh, Salads, Baking, Cooking
