Many of us love a juicy, sweet apple, but have you ever wondered where this iconic fruit came from? In the mountains of Kazakhstan about 5,000 years ago, people snacked on small, acidic, bitter apples.

As people spread the apple seeds throughout the world, they also found ways to recreate the apple to have better storage capabilities, contain more soluble solids (sugars) and have antioxidant benefits.

Did you know that The Apple Diversity Lab maintains one of the world's most diverse apple orchards in Nova Scotia, Canada? The trees represent more than 1,000 different apple varieties from all over the world, including the little bitter wild apples from the forests of Central Asia. The Lab studies the natural diversity of apples and help breed new varieties that are tasty and require less chemicals.

And the saying, “eating an apple a day keeps the doctor away,” may have some truth. Apples are an incredibly nutritious fruit that offers multiple health benefits. Eating them is linked to a lower risk of many chronic conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Apples may also promote weight loss and improve gut and brain health.
