The apple crop is abundant in San Benito County this year. Though delayed by the cold spring, it is now waiting for you at local farms and fruitstands. What could be better than a cool, crisp apple? Local farmers have estimated the harvest is up about 25 percent over recent years. Of course, apples are not the only fruit with great nutritional value. If you would like more information on the nutritional make up of apples, or many of your other favorite fruits, click on the Safe Fruits and Veggies link. Or better yet, have your children or grandchildren look at it with you. There is nothing like eating your five fruits and/or vegetables each day to enjoy a healthy life.
