ππ A new addition to our shelves, and we think you're going to love it!
We now have the book, Sweet, Tart & Golden: Apples in the Midwestern Imagination, by Dr. Lucy M. Long in the store. It's a fascinating, delightful read about how apples have shaped Midwestern food, history, and culture. If you love apples as much as we do, this one belongs on your fall reading list.
And here's our favorite part: somewhere in the middle of the book, Dr. Long writes a lovely piece about Maple Hills Orchard and the relationship she has with its current owners. It's a warm reminder that orchards are about people and community as much as fruit.
Stop in, browse our shelves, and pick up a copy of Sweet, Tart & Golden while you're here. Apples are available pre-picked in our store (no u-pick apples), so you can take home a bag of apples and a good book in one trip. β
Do you have a favorite apple memory? π Drop it in the comments, or tag a fellow apple lover who needs this book!
