🍎 3 WAYS TO ENJOY THIS WEEK’S FRESH APPLES!

Apples aren't just for snacking! 🍏 Pick up some fresh apples at the CNY Regional Market and put them to work in the kitchen.

✨ 1. Make an apple crisp
Slice them up, add a cinnamon-oat topping, and bake until golden and bubbly.

🥗 2. Add them to a salad
Thinly sliced apples pair beautifully with greens, nuts, cheese, and a simple vinaigrette.

🥞 3. Upgrade breakfast
Dice apples into oatmeal, layer them over pancakes, or sauté them with cinnamon for an easy seasonal topping.

Shopper tip: Apples naturally produce ethylene gas, which can speed up ripening in nearby produce. Store apples separately from fruits and vegetables that are sensitive to ethylene if you want to help them stay fresh longer.

🍏 APPLE SEASON IS HERE!

There’s nothing quite like a crisp, fresh apple—and shopping for them at your local market makes them even sweeter. ❤️🍎

From snacking and lunchboxes to pies, crisps, sauces, and salads, apples are one of the most versatile fruits you can bring home.

Not sure which apple to choose? Here’s a quick guide:

🍎 Sweet & crisp: Great for snacking
🍏 Tart & firm: Perfect for baking
🍎 Sweet & soft: Try them in applesauce
🍏 Mix & match: Combine sweet and tart varieties for a more flavorful pie or crisp!

Freshness tip: Look for apples that are firm, smooth, and free of bruises or soft spots. Once you get them home, refrigerating them will help maintain their texture and freshness.

🍎 WHAT’S FRESH THIS WEEK: APPLES!

Crisp, sweet, tart, and totally in season! 🍎✨ Apples are making their way into shoppers’ bags at the CNY Regional Market, and there are plenty of delicious ways to enjoy them.

Did you know? Apples are a good source of fiber and vitamin C, and eating them with the skin provides even more fiber. Plus, their natural sweetness makes them an easy snack when you’re on the go.

🍎 Shopper tip: Keep apples in the refrigerator to help them stay crisp and fresh longer. If you’re buying a larger quantity, ask your favorite vendor which varieties are best for eating, baking, or making applesauce!

🥕 625 MORE POUNDS OF FOOD RECOVERED! 🥕

Our Market vendors continue to show up for our community! ❤️

Another 625 lbs. of unsold food was recovered this past Saturday through the OFRN food recovery program, bringing us to 14 Market vendors who have participated so far!

That food is being redirected to local community organizations instead of going to waste—and we couldn’t do it without our amazing vendors and volunteers. 🙌

📍 A quick update for today:
OFRN volunteers will arrive at 12 PM to collect donations. There will no longer be a collection table in D-Shed throughout the Market.

If you have eligible unsold food you'd like to donate, please have it ready for collection around noon.

Want to help? OFRN is also looking for volunteers to help pick up and deliver recovered food! Sign up using this link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0548ACAA22A3F9C07-64863210-ofrn #/

Thank you to everyone who has helped make this program possible. 625 lbs. at a time, we’re making a difference! 🌱
