MILTON, N.Y. (RFD News) — Apples remain one of America’s favorite fruits, and in New York, they continue playing a major role in the state’s agriculture industry.
For Trapani Farms, that connection to apple production stretches back four generations.
Ben Trapani says the family operation grows a wide range of fruits, including peaches, raspberries, blueberries, plums and table grapes, though apples remain the farm’s largest crop.
“We grow approximately 19 different varieties of apples. It seems like everybody has their special type that they like. We try to grow different varieties that are really requested by the people.”
Over the years, the family has expanded into eight different farmers markets, helping build a loyal customer base around their produce.
New York remains the second-largest apple producing state in the country, growing more than 30 million bushels each year.
Today, we honor the courage, dedication, and service of the men and women of the United States Armed Forces by taking a closer look at their commitment and teamwork in action.
