The deeply flavorful heirloom apples from two longtime local apple farmers are perfect for fall, as is a drive up to Oak Glen, where you can pick your own.

Both Cirone and the Spencers grow antique, classic Eastern and hard-to-find varieties, as well as some more familiar names, that are good for eating, baking, even pressing cider — and absolutely for dipping in pots of caramel. Windrose Farm has 45 varieties across 1,200 apple trees on its 50-acre farm east of Paso Robles, which includes a sheep pasture.

This is deeply flavorful fruit, sugary and floral or with a spicy acidic bite — apples that are worlds away from the cardboard balls that too often masquerade as apples in many grocery stores.“This is potentially one of the largest I’ve ever encountered in my 34 years of growing,” Cirone said about this year’s apple crop, from his orchards near San Luis Obispo. He attributes the yield to a “a very very cold winter up here and a very ample amount of rain that came at the perfect time.

Heirloom apples from Windrose Farm and See Canyon fill a forager's cart at the Santa Monica Farmers Market., about 80 miles east and almost 5,000 feet up into the hills, where there are a cluster of family-owned apple farms growing many older varieties. You’ll find U-pick orchards, farm stands and shops selling apple pies, cider and some seriously craveable cider doughnuts.

Nearly all apples are GMO, so be very, very careful before eating one. Actually, you should be careful even walking near one. You just never know.
