Apple Varieties: Uses and Descriptions

Honeycrisp This EXPLOSIVELY CRISP apple is one of Minnesota's best.  Our guests say, " Great!" as it becomes one of our most popular varieties. The only thing better than the flavor is "picking your own" Honeycrisp at Apple Ridge! 

Haralson One of the most versatile apples ever  developed in Minnesota, its flavor  has a bit of a tang.  Haralson is one of the best apples for all uses: eating, caramel apples, pies, and sauce.

HoneyGold  Excellent sweet eating apple. As this apple turns yellow, you can't beat it for eating.  Makes excellent pie or sauce requiring very little sugar.

Cortland An excellent slightly tart apple which is snow white when cut and keeps its color when sliced for salads.  Cortland is also excellent for pies and sauce.

Regent This cross between Red Delicious and Duchess is an excellent sweet eating apple.
