Took a little family trip out to apple picking country about 20 minutes outside of Montreal at Mont St. Gregoire today. There is a beautiful orchard at the base of the mountain called Verger de la Montagne(450)460-2858 and they are open all winter if you want to call them and order apples. It's a family run business which we like to support since local farmers have such a tough time in this competitive market. We already picked about a month ago but my dad wanted some more of his favorites which are called Spencer. So got 80 lbs of Spencers for $50 (62 cents /lb) and we had the privilage of trying out a new variety which doesn't even have a name yet although Kiera dubbed them Juicy Juice because they really are juicy and crispy and have a sweet flavour with a hint of grape/passion fruit in them. So the yellow "juicy Juice" ones were 10lbs for $7.
