Chez Fowler Farms, un endroit parfait pour SweeTango

SweeTango, Fowler Farms
The Fowlers: Bob, Austin, JD and John

The best apple growers in the world — including the Fowler family in upstate New York — bring you SweeTango apples.

Fowler Farms has been growing apples near the shores of Lake Ontario since the mid-1800s. J.D. and Austin represent the family’s sixth generation, with the original homestead now encompassing more than 2,500 acres of fruit, including SweeTango.

« One of the advantages of having five generations before us is that knowledge is passed along, » J.D. Fowler said. « My cousin and I have been able to learn from our dads and uncles how to grow apples, how to do it right. »

The Fowlers take full advantage of their location in Wayne County, New York’s top apple-producing county.

« We’re bleesed with a great growing environment on the southern shore of Lake Ontario, so it’s a great place, one of the best in the world for growing apples, » J.D. said.

And SweeTango is the best of the best.

« It’s a great apple — crisp, sweet and juicy, » J.D. said. « A unique eating experience, probably better than any apple variety that’s come along so far. »

The Fowler family knows it’s all about producing delicious apples. That’s what makes it possible for them to continue doing what they love.
