Take a Bite
North Georgia Apples
"EAT IT RAW, TOSS IT IN A SALAD, BAKE IT INTO A PIE, OR COOK IT INTO SAUCE OR BUTTER. APPLES ARE TRULY ONE FRUIT THAT CAN BE ENJOYED ANY WAY YOU WANT THEM." - Jaemor Farms
Few sensations are as satisfying as biting into a crisp, ripe apple. The experience is even better, when the fruit is plucked fresh from a North Georgia apple orchard.
Generations of Georgia farmers have cultivated the hills for growing delicious apples. These family-run orchards and large businesses are fully committed to serving their communities, while attracting visitors from all reaches to our state. Georgia produces more than 600,000 bushels of apples, weighing more than 26 million pounds each year. While commercial growth of apples is centered in a relatively small area of the state - more than 600 acres with approximately 360,000 trees - they are a major contributor to our agricultural economy as a whole.
As temperatures drop, more than just bushels of fresh apples can be found at the apple-house orchards. Farm fun for all ages awaits as well.
