It’s National Apple Week, and there’s no better time for Tidbits to take a look at one of the world’s favorite fruits!

• There are more than 7,500 known varieties of apples, each with its own specific characteristics and qualities. Some are tart, some are sweet. Some are meant for eating fresh, some for cooking, and still others for cider production. • The Malus domestica, the apple tree, originated in eastern Turkey. More apples are grown in China than any other nation, about half of the world’s supply. The United States is a distant second, producing about 5% of the world’s apples, while Turkey is in third place. About 70 million tons of apples are grown worldwide annually. • When the Pilgrims arrived in North America in the 17th century, they discovered crabapples, but disliked their sour and woody taste. The colonists requested that seeds and cuttings be sent from England on subsequent voyages, and North America’s first apple orchard was planted in Boston in 1625. During the early 1800s, Massachusetts native John Chapman traveled across Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois planting apple trees, and became known as Johnny Appleseed. turn the page for more!
