Are apples good for you?

Apples are a good source of fibre (especially pectin) and vitamin C, with antioxidants concentrated in the skin. They support gut health and help you feel full.

Apples grow on trees that blossom in spring and fruit in late summer and autumn. Most orchards grow several varieties that ripen at different times.

Where do apples grow?

Apple trees thrive in temperate climates with a cold winter to set fruit, in well-drained soil and full sun. They are grown across Europe, North America, and other cool-temperate regions.
