apples1In addition to the mouth-watering selection of apples we have always provided, Engelsma’s Apple Barn is now offering Pink Lady apples. As the first to blossom and the last to be harvested, Pink Lady apples benefit from the extra days of sunshine. Their pink blush and sweet crunch make them as appealing to the eye as they are to the taste buds. Stop in at our market this Saturday (429 Covell Ave., NW) between 9am and 4pm and buy some for yourself!
