Buy your apples from the birthplace of the Honeycrisp! Each year we offer a wide selection of apples for sale at the AppleHouse. Look for the University of Minnesota’s newest introduction, First Kiss, as well as other delicious apples, including SweeTango, Zestar!, Honeycrisp, Haralson, Honeygold, Snowsweet and many others. The selection changes throughout the harvest, so call the apple hotline (612-301-3487) to see what varieties are available. Shoppers will also find a wide variety of pumpkins, squash and gourds grown at the Arboretum that come in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes.
