Lake Chelan

See all regions
The Chelan region is known for producing hearty apples of exquisite quality, flavor, texture, color, and shape. Such beautiful fruit is a product of a unique temperate microclimate. Orchards line the shores of the 50-mile long lake, whose deep waters cool hot summer days and warm the air temperature in winter.

Grown with Goodness

A HIGHER STANDARD

Washington’s apple standards are the most rigorous in the country. We evaluate every variety’s color, weight, pressure, sugar level, size, and condition before and after harvest before any fruit is packed up and sold.
