The work of Maryland’s apple growers is paying off for you now! It’s Apple Month in Maryland! Varieties that range from Crispin, big golden green globes of sweetness, to the Stayman, with its tart and spicy flesh are ready for the eating. All these types of apples and the growers who produce them have stories to tell. For a complete list of different apple varieties grown in Maryland complete with taste profiles click here.
The Stayman, for example, was developed in 1876 in Leavenworth County, Kansas. Maryland even has its Antietam Blush, a project of the University of Maryland.
One of Maryland’s apple growers, Robert Black, was honored last year as Apple Grower of the Year by American Fruit Grower magazine.
