Right up there with other popular apples like Honeycrisp and Granny Smith, Gala Apples are one of the most popular apple varieties in the produce aisle! The Gala apple is hard to beat – they're sweet, grown year long, and easy to bite into. When you're grocery shopping for the perfect organic Gala apple, keep an eye out for these gems grown by our friends at Starr Ranch® Growers.
