Celebrate The Naturally Non-Browning, Organic Yellow Apple with a Crunch
Washington – Fruit lovers have a new holiday to celebrate! December 9th, 2022 commemorates the inaugural National Opal Apples Day, officially recognized on NationalToday.com.
With a vivid bright yellow appearance, unique crunch, and sweet and tangy flavor, Opal apples stand out in the orchard.
Opal apples are a cross between a Golden Delicious apple and a Topaz apple, but beyond its flavor and hue, this extraordinary apple boasts natural non-browning properties, a unique attribute allowing this sunny fruit to remain fresh and crunchy long after cutting. Opals can be left sliced for hours and won’t turn brown.
Opal apples were discovered in Europe in 1999 and are exclusively sold by FirstFruits Farms BB #:355279 in North America. More recently, this certified organic, non-GMO apple is one of the most sought-after on the market. Today, Opal apples are also known as “The Apple That Gives Back” by sponsoring the Youth Make a Difference grant initiative, addressing food insecurities in communities nationwide.
“Opals and family time are the highlight of our holiday season,” said Chuck Zeutenhorst, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, FirstFruits Farms. “Now there is an entire day designated to celebrating Opals and we encourage you to share them with your family, so they can enjoy them as much as we do.”
