Medina — Apple Country (Love Creek Orchards)

Medina calls itself the Apple Capital of Texas, and Love Creek Orchards makes the case in concrete terms: eleven apple varieties — Granny Smith, Fuji, Jonagold, Pink Lady, Gala among them — available to the public year-round, alongside baked goods including apple pie, apple butters, and apple bread. The orchard is open when the festival that once surrounded it is not; Medina has suspended its annual International Apple Festival, but the fruit remains.
