Apple · European pear
🗓 Season: August · September · October · November
🔍 When is it ripe?
Apple: Background colour changes from green to yellow or cream (variety determines final colour). Seeds inside should be brown. Flesh yields slightly to thumb pressure. A ripe apple releases with a gentle upward twist — no pulling. Check the ground for natural drops.
European pear: Pick when background colour shifts from green to yellow-green and the stem separates cleanly. Finish ripening indoors — flesh near the stem should give slightly when pressed.
Scattered patch of tart, tannic, but flavorful apples and pears. Great for cider, less so for fresh eating. Probably bird planted. Accessible from Chip Ross Park--bit of a hike with a big sack of apples, but it's a pretty one.
