Gala

Pinkish-orange stripes over a yellow background are the signature of this crisp, aromatically-sweet, snappy apple. Galas have gained popularity among consumers in the past 15 years. Snacking and salads are primary uses.

Quick History – Galas originated in New Zealand and were introduced to the market in 1965. A cross between Cox’s Orange Pippin and Golden Delicious, Gala was developed by New Zealand plant breeders.

Availability - Gala harvest begins in the middle of August and lasts through early September. Galas are available in-store September to May.
