Macoun a year in

A ribbed apple with a saturated purple-red blush

There is no way this can be very good, and I almost shied away out of respect for one of my favorite apples, Macoun.

But curiosity, and respect for yours, led me to buy two of these at a farm stand in Bolton on August 13.

Trailman Crabapple **

JUST PEACHY

4 yellow and orange crab apples

These little guys, from Indiana, have exactly the same colors as the local peaches here in the Bay State right now.

They are a sight for sore eyes. I have not tasted a new variety since last October.

These are Trailmans, and they are crab sized, most just a bit over an inch wide.
