LOS ALAMITOS, CA – Frieda’s Organic Heirloom Apples are now available from Frieda’s Specialty Produce. These 15 varieties of organic heirloom apples are available in short bursts throughout the season. Due to the short season and limited availability, most retailers and distributors pre-book theirs months in advance.
“Heirloom apples are especially flavorful and are a perfect symbol of fall. And because ours are organic and locally grown in Oregon, they are extremely popular,” said Karen Caplan, President and CEO of Frieda’s Specialty Produce.
Among the varieties available from Frieda’s are Cox's Orange Pippin, Matsu, Orleans Reinette, Roxbury Russet, and Arkansas Black. Call Frieda’s today for a complete list of varieties and availability.
