MAIA's journey has been remarkable, starting with two individuals inviting a handful of apple growers, progressing to a meeting in a living room, and then moving on to successful trials. This effort culminated in the creation of one of America's most delicious apples, the EverCrisp?, which has now become a household name. Join co-founder Mitch Lynd and current president Bill Dodd as they reflect on MAIA's beginnings. https://lnkd.in/eUXdk3AK

We love checking in on your orchards! From tree to store, this EverCrisp? harvest has been exemplary. Gabe Spurgeon showed us his apples waiting to be picked. The season looks like it's been good over at Orchard Landing and Galena Cider Co., judging from the lovely fruit in the bin. And finally, thanks to the folks at Fowler Farms for letting us know that EverCrisp? is making its splash in stores!
