Lodi apples are the first apples of the season for us. They are similar to Yellow Transparent. We have 3 semi-dwarf Lodi trees. The 1 pictured was the most productive, the other two were about average.
Saturday we picked 10 boxes off the 3 trees.
Some of the apples we will process for drying.
This simple gadget cores, peels and slices in one operation.
Cutting the good part in half.
Ready to be placed on the dryer tray.

Our old Harvest Maid is still going even with the duct tape. Here it is filled with apples which will only take about 24 hours before another load can go in.
The scraps ready for the compost heap.

I can hardly wait to do some of ours! We got one of those gadgets but it's not as nice. Still pretty handy.
ReplyDeleteThose dehydrated apples are goo-oo-ood. I tried some today!
