Fruit trees are available for pickup at the farm only. No shipping available.
The Braeburn apple is known for its firm, crisp, and tangy fruit, which has a long shelf life and is popular in both fresh and cooked preparations. In terms of cooking, the Braeburn apple is a versatile apple that is suitable for a variety of preparations, including pies, crisps, sauces, and salads. An excellent baking apple, it holds it shape when cooked and does not release tons of juice when heated.
The fruit of the Braeburn apple is medium to large in size, with a red-orange skin that is often striped with green. The flesh is firm, crisp, and juicy, with a tangy flavor that has hints of sweetness and spice.
The fruit ripens in mid- to late-October, depending on the location and climate.
Uncommon to most apples- the Braeburn is self fertile and will produce some fruit on its own but homeowners will get more and better fruit with a pollinator.
Stores well in consistent temperatures for 4-6 months.
