I didn’t realize using different kinds of apples was ideal! Thanks for the tip, Jan!

I LOVE homemade apple sauce – and homemade apple butter. I really need to get some apples and make both of those, plus a new batch of apple wine. I better get busy.

My Dad makes applesauce from our apples every year. We have 6 trees, each a different kind, so always have a nice assortment for him to use. He freezes the sauce and I just need to ask him for a few containers of it whenever I run low. It’s just great. He also takes care of our apple trees too, knowing that will get him a better crop of apples in the fall.
p.s. I love the jack o’ lantern banner for October!

When we lived in Western Washington we had our own apple trees and we made a deal with the old lady up the street for the apples from her tree. A friend of ours owned a cider press. Every year we would pick from all the apples (no idea what types they were) into the bed of our truck. How many pecks this was I have no clue but it did fill the bed of the truck about halfway or more depending on how good the season. So let’s say a shit-ton of apples. We would then take the apples to our friend’s place and proceed to press approximately 60 gallons of cider; 48 for us, 6 for our friends (for the use of the press) and 6 for the old lady (for her apples. JR also took care of all the maintenance of her trees). The remaining apples were made into applesauce, apple butter, frozen apples for baking and dried apples. Beyond the labor, which was a lot, the whole year of apple stuff was free. We would freeze some of the cider for drinking throughout the year, let some of it get hard, for the adults, and canned fruit, in place of sugar, with the rest. We were all pioneer like back then.
