We store about 1000 bins of apples in large coolers known as cold storage rooms. The temperature in these rooms is maintained at 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius. (Apples freeze at 29 degrees Fahrenheit or -1.7 degrees Celsius) Apples will stay fresh in these rooms until January or February. For long term storage of apples, we use our Controlled Atmosphere (CA) rooms. Continue to read the information below to learn more about this effective form of storage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60412b7cfe0cc52d1cc5c218/1617126919516-T94CV5RMXXR9V822FUTW/IMG_5597.jpg Apples - Controlled Atmosphere (C.A.) Storage with SmartFresh Technology For long term storage of our apples, we use Controlled Atmosphere (CA) storage. Most of the oxygen is drawn out of these rooms to lower the rate of respiration of the apples. After a 90 day period, these apples may be removed from the room where they will taste as crisp as the day that they were picked off the tree. This process allows us to keep and sell quality apples all year long. We store about 1000 bins of apples in CA storage every season. Apples are stored in CA airtight rooms at a temperature of 33-36 degrees Fahrenheit, depending on the variety. TIP: The most effective way to store your apples is in an airtight plastic bag in your refrigerator. Take out a few at a time when you are ready to use them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60412b7cfe0cc52d1cc5c218/1617068515017-Q5KR8ITMG32KJGAQF8H0/IMG_2850.jpg Apples https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60412b7cfe0cc52d1cc5c218/1617068566525-1A8RF4PPNFHROLQDBVN2/IMG_2851.jpg Apples https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60412b7cfe0cc52d1cc5c218/1617068634204-PVUFSFITU6292FV06TDY/IMG_2852.jpg Apples https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60412b7cfe0cc52d1cc5c218/1617068666575-2KRXNLS46L4ZMY2WE4JM/IMG_2853.jpg Apples https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60412b7cfe0cc52d1cc5c218/1615513434861-NY0SNG0TLK6B1FAVUD9S/FFC3568.jpg Apples Apples are washed in preparation for packing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60412b7cfe0cc52d1cc5c218/1615510972316-EPJ661RRSMSK7TXCVGWV/FFC3436.jpg Apples Apples on the conveyor belt will be packed after being washed and dried.
