Yakima, Wash.-based Domex Superfresh Growers is increasing its harvest of Autumn Glory apples.

“It is exciting,” Dave Gleason, horticulturist and proprietary variety developer for Domex Superfresh, said in the release and in a YouTube harvest update. “All year long we’ve been watching this fruit grow, watching it apple by apple. We have been protecting it and giving it the water and nutrients it needs. And now we get to put it in the bin, and into the system that will present the apple to you!”

Grown and marketed exclusively by Superfresh Growers, Autumn Glory apples have unique caramel and cinnamon notes, exceptional juice, and crunch, according to the release. The apple is grower-friendly, making it easy to grow organically, as well as conventionally. Autumn Glory also stores and ships well. “And ultimately,” Gleason said in the release, “Autumn Glory is an apple that you want to come back and eat!”
