Fifth Crow Farm
Arlet & Hudson's Golden Gem Apples (2 x 1.5lb bags)
Two of Fifth Crow’s most distinctive apple varieties, side by side. The Arlet — also known as Swiss Gourmet — is a red-blushed variety developed in Switzerland with a sweet-tart flavor and hints of berries and melon. The Hudson’s Golden Gem is a russet variety discovered as a wild seedling in Oregon in 1931, with a pear-like shape, golden-brown skin, and an exceptionally nutty, butterscotch-rich flavor. A great way to taste two varieties rarely found outside specialty orchards.
Fifth Crow Farm is a certified organic farm founded in 2008 in Pescadero, CA, on the San Mateo coast — 45 miles from San Francisco and 35 miles from Santa Cruz. Operating on 150 acres including 30 acres of row crops, a 24-variety apple orchard, and a pastured egg operation, the farm sells primarily to farmers markets and restaurants in San Francisco and San Mateo County.
