Apple Picking

Apple Picking in Bob and Penny’s tree, September 2009

Apple picking, in Bob and Penny’s tree, is one activity I enjoy each year. Small apples make delicious treats, that will be available all year round.

Proper dehydration is important:

Too much and you have bullets.
Too little and you risk a visit from “Mr mold”.
Just right and you have a delicious chewy treat with darts and beer.

Dehydration is a great method, however I also wash, de-stem, blanch and freezer bag a large quantity. This way I include 5 or 6 apples in my veggie mix each morning.
