Picking apples in St. Vital on August 4.

Big tree full of Parkland apples.

These Parkland apples are a really nice size for making all kinds of tasty apple dishes.

Some of the trees are really high. It's best NOT to look down when you're climbing that ladder!

There's nothing much better than picking apples on a beautiful summer day and taking those apples home to turn into applesauce, apple crisp or any other dish you can think of.
