Wilson's Orchard & Farm
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 7 เม.ย. 2014
Established in 1980, Wilson's Orchard & Farm is a pick-your-own fruit and vegetable farm located just a few miles North of Iowa City, IA.
The most important piece of our farm ecosystem is you, and we aim to grow the food that you're hungry for. We try to choose varieties that prioritize flavor, meet the local demand for Iowa-grown produce, and improve the health and wellness of our community.
The strength of our food supply chain relies on farmers providing reasonable access to locally-grown food and beverages to the entire community. Each season we partner with various local food pantries and community programs that support our neighborhoods and make our products available to as many as possible.

Baking From Scratch at Wilson's Bakery
A key part of our process at Wilson's is we bake from scratch. Scratch baking takes a bit more effort but we believe that the process honors the quality and freshness of our ingredients. We want to control as many steps of the process as possible to ensure that our craft and quality come through in the food we serve. Scratch cooking tastes better, and it’s better for us.

Today, Kyle is talking about Crimson Gold Crab, not to be mistaken for the regular Crimson Gold Apple. This crabapple was developed in the late 1800s by Albert Etter, a California horticulturist.

I love your videos and they frustrate me at the same time. The thing is, you discuss so many interesting breeds, some of which I had never heard of, and I want to go out right away and get some. This snow sweet is a perfect example. But everywhere I look they have the same 8 or 10 varieties, maximum, and I just can't get the lesser known varieties. But enjoyable to watch and learn anyway.
What about judging by the average sound of your apples due to a light flick or in reference to the sound of a ripe one you flicked?
Hi, I planted nova raspberries in fall of last year ,didn't get any berries this yr is this normal? Ty
My young Arkansas black got it this year
Where can I buy 10lbs to make jelly
I'm so glad I found this series and your videos. I have a 7 yo honey crisp. It's a dwarf variety I don't know what stock it's on. It is the only tree that survived the rabbit attach on my orchard I had planted in 2017. I have a nice crop of apples this year, better than last years the fruit are fewer and the fruit is bigger. This year I did help the tree a bit by checking and dropping the fruit that was weak around the king. It also did it's own eliminating. I'm hoping to find videos on your channel about when and what to prune during the dormant season. I have pruned every year but am still learning. Thanks again for a great series. I hope you have one on pruning...
Went to pick my own apples once and they weren't ripe; that was years ago. Now I am equipped to go back and succeed! Thanks so much!
And if I was anywhere near IA, I would visit! You carry all of my favorites: McIntosh, Ida Red, Rome Beauty, and Jonathan! Now I'll have to grow some of my own... At least now I know how to pick the Rome Beauty at the orchard up the road. Yay!
While trying to mow down out of control Blackberries I found a tree approximately 3 foot tall which I believe is a crabapple. Is there an information source to know for sure?
Thank you for the history and interesting information.
I'm harvesting our crab apples in our backyard and it's a very prolific tree. it's a very sweet tart. it's a 40 year old tree. Pounds and pounds of apples
LOVE Paula. she taught me SO much. amazing woman. How has she done it all. I'm reading "Mediterranean grains and greens : a book of savory, sun-drenched recipes".. Somehow I had previously missed this one. SO SO AMAZING. I once saw her speak when the Moroccan book was re released. Stunning. My hero for sure.
thank you so much! this has helped immensely in figuring out what is happening to my berries. appreciate all the info.
I have a tree with these apples. They are close to being ready to eat, and boy, is the tree loaded this year!
hi...heres hoping you still read these comments...question. once you created your scaffolding and then plan there forward to have laterals produce fruit, are you boxing in a limited time frame as to how many years the laterals willl grow and produce fruit before they then become mature wood that conflicts with the scaffold?
Very interesting
Great talk. Thanks
Do you sell them
Grew up in Nebraska, and made the annual pilgrimage to Nebraska City and its Arbor Day Lodge, and surrounding apple orchards. They were heavy on Jonathan, and the Johnathan apples there were tremendous. That is definitely THE apple I compare all others to.
APPLE MAC IRL 🤯🤯🤯🤯
When is the evercrisp pollinating/flowering?
Looks like a winner ..wondering when the average homeowner can buy a tree to plant ?
Do you dig them up by hand or with equipment?
My neighbor has an apple tree that fully died from it. I have over 10 apple trees on my property. Will her lack of cutting her dead tree, pass to mine? The neighbor does absolutely nothing with her yard 😢
Love Pristine
These are my favorite apples. I get them every year.
What rootstock is it on?
Nice video. I have constructed a perch above my orchard to encourage hawks and owls to consume voles and mice.
If I follow the basic rule for Gombo than there is plenty of room for creativity to cook a dish that represents me! That’s really cool, thanks!
Thank you! Finally, someone who gets to the point and is thorough. Only thing, how big it gets and any pest or disease issues. I planted three or four of these along with Dorset and Anna and hope all goes well. Pink Lady bloomed this year, but only put on a few fruits that yellowed and fell off. I think the trees are too young. (2nd and 3rd season) May I please borrow your explanation of what a Pink Lady is for my channel when I talk about my Pink Lady? I mean, you nailed it. Thanks!
Always love your videos !
I just got a Mutsu apple 🍏 😊
I don't know where you getting your history from but the way jerk came about was from the slaves that escaped and ran into the mountains and to not get caught from when they need it to eat Cook their food underground you need to learn more about history
It took about 4 years to get apples on my tree. It’s a healthy tree with no issues with fire blight. Biggest problem are critters pulling off the immature fruit. My husband says these critters are suffering from a deficiency of lead! He is aiming to solve that problem!
How long does it take a full size Harrison tree to fruit?
I just ate 3 of my first honey eyes and it was tart but yummy. Mine are small but it’s at the beginning of the season and I’ve moved them several times because of predators with squirrels running off with a few of my plants. But I’m growing them indoors and outdoors. They taste no different between being grown outside and inside. It’s exciting to have my own strawberries.
Japanese apple
I am sold on coreopsis. Yellow. Have to get seeds for other colors.
Where can i order these trees?
Excellent presentation
Here in Germany crab apples are not a big thing, and I always wondered what to do with them. So, thank you for the great video 🙏🏻
Nice
nice
Fascinating video... Here in the uk there is a naturally occurring wild crab apple, a modest tree of the hedgerow with a small tart yellow apple. It good for cider, making apple jelly and for the birds and small mammals to eat. Thanks for your enthusiasm.
Thank you for educating us on how the land actually can shape the effects of frost on apples. Great video.
I think I’ve got a Whitney crab tree, it’s my favorite apple for fresh eating. It has an amazing rose floral taste when ripened well.
I picked up this book from the library today. Looking forward to trying this recipe.
What pollinators work best with Zestar? What zones are best vs possible for growth?

Can you talk about maintaining the strawberries? Do they need fertilization? Which kind and how often? Should we pick off dead leaves? I have seen strawberries get brown patches on the leaves and eventually the entire leaf dies. Then most of the other strawberries develop the brown patches. Removing the infected leaves help, but it can be overwhelming? Any suggestions and preventions?
This was exactly what I needed. Short and sweet! Our first red strawberry is ready to be picked!
