Apple Hill™ Through the Decades By David Bolster
50 Years Ago … The Beatles
were taking America by storm, and the first Ford
Mustang was rolling off the assembly line. The year was 1964, and in
Camino, CA, apple and pear farmers were in a desperate fight for sur-
vival. While the pear industry was decimated by a disease called Pear
Decline, apple growers grappled with the challenge of paltry returns
for their fruit. From these desperate times spawned the idea to bring
the public to their farms, and in July of 1964, the Apple Hill Growers
Association was born. In his article in the fall of ’64, Henry Schacht of
the San Francisco Chronicle called it “The Brave Try of Apple Hill.”
40 Years Ago
By the early 1970s America had won the race to the moon, and the
intrepid group of Camino farmers were discovering the public was
falling in love with Apple Hill. Modeled after a festival in Ohio, the
Apple Hill Growers held their first Apple Hill Smorgasbord in 1966,
and by the early ’70s, were overwhelmed by the response. With the
public clamoring for apple desserts beyond just the two weekends
of the “Smorgy,” bake shops sprang up throughout the ‘Hill.
30 Years Ago
The 1980s and early ’90s brought the end of the Cold War, a tech-
nology revolution that changed the world, and for the Apple Hill
Growers, a revolution in the form of a new winery industry, the Fuji
apple boom, and the introduction of new crops to the area, such
as blueberries.
15 Years Ago
The 21st century has brought us the age of social media and
dramatic changes in how we buy and consume our food. The
Apple Hill Growers have been leaders in the “locavore,” pick your
own, and farm-to-fork movements that are now prevalent today.
Consumers today want to know where and how their food is
grown, and want to buy it locally whenever possible. Our Growers
offer our visitors the opportunity to do just that. The essence of
Apple Hill is the experience of visiting our family farms and
wineries together with family and friends. Following the attacks of
September 11, 2001, Anita Creamer of the Sacramento Bee wrote

Water Conservancy has been of utmost importance
to the Apple Hill™ Growers for 40 years! We realized early on that
wasting water can have a negative impact on both the availability of
water for area residents and the cost of water for everyone.
The irrigation water used by Apple Hill™ Growers comes out of
the Sly Park reservoir in Pollock Pines. During the drought of the
mid-1970s this reservoir was nearly emptied. The federal government
owned Sly Park and demanded that the major water users
(agriculture) become most efficient in their water use.
Richard Bethell, an Apple Hill™ Founder and El Dorado County
U.C. Cooperative Extension advisor, obtained a 3-year grant to study
ways to increase agriculture water efficiency. This study involved
participation by the federal, state, and county governments as well
as the University of California and local growers. The study
investigated how water was being utilized on the farm and how to
improve applications. They studied 1) when growers irrigated, 2) the
systems used to apply the water and 3) system maintenance and reli-
ability. The study results found that growers irrigated on a 10 to 14
day schedule regardless of weather conditions. Further, the irrigation
systems were such that less than 50% of the water coming out of
the sprinklers was actually getting into the crop root zone. A
program was developed that corrected these problems.
The Irrigation Management Service (IMS) monitors soil moisture
levels once a week during the irrigation season. IMS uses this
information with local weather conditions to predict site specific
irrigation events. The service also utilizes site specific irrigation
system information to tell growers how long to run a particular
system to only replace the depleted soil moisture.
An analysis of the IMS program in 1986 demonstrated that this
service saved more than 2,400 acre feet (782 million gallons)
of water over 2,500 irrigated acres. This was accomplished by
eliminating two irrigation events per season when using local
weather information as opposed to calendar scheduled events.
Also, the irrigation system improvements increased water delivery
effects from less than 50% to greater than 80%.
As an Apple Hill™ grower (Smokey Ridge #133) and water
management specialist, I along with other Apple Hill™ growers,
understand that water savings in the orchards benefit everyone.
We are deeply committed to improving water use efficiency as
technology and water delivery systems improve.

We began life as a family-run apple stand some 38 years ago. One day, our friends at Raley's asked if we could make fresh
cider for their fine stores. "No problem," we said. So we borrowed a neighbor's cider press and put the kids to work … topping off bottles by hand and delivering ice-covered juice on the back of a rickety old flatbed. My how things have changed! Today, our grandkids help craft our extraordinary ciders, juices,
and blends right here on our Apple Hill farm for folksall across the country.
We’re proud to be part of your Apple Hill experience, both up here in the foothills and back home at your local store.
So to all of our fellow farms, we happily say GREAT JOB and ...

Joan Delfino’s Quick Guide to Apples
With so many apples to choose from it can
be a little overwhelming choosing the perfect apple for your needs.
This timeless guide includes many common varieties and was created
several years ago by an Apple Hill™ matriarch. It’s a great guide to
use when you’re not sure which apple to pick. We have a handy
ripening schedule on applehill.com so you’ll know what’s available.
Golden Delicious: My pick for best all around apple.
This apple is great for pies because there is little need
to add much sugar. The slices keep their shape, and
will not mush down. Makes great applesauce without
sugar. This apple will keep in a cool place for months.
Rome Beauty: For baked apples, the Rome is the
one. If grown in the valley, the flavor is very bland.
However, grown in the foothills, the Rome has a
sweet tanginess that is hard to beat. Rome apples
are big, red and round and when baked they retain their shape but cook
to a softness that is perfect for a baked apple.
Empire: This hybrid of a McIntosh and Red
Delicious is a great eating apple. Because it is
part McIntosh, it is okay to bake.
Gala: A beautiful apple. With its gold and orange
stripes, and its perfect shape, the Gala is a winner.
I would not bake with a Gala, however. I would
make salads, eat it fresh, and even make
applesauce with it.
Granny Smith: A great tart, crisp apple. Many pie
bakers swear by this apple. In our bakery, we usually
switch from Golden Delicious to Grannys around the
first of November, mainly because they peel easier at
that time of year. However, we do add more sugar to our pies and
applesauce with Granny Smith apples. The Granny makes a nice Waldorf
salad with the addition of chunk pineapple to offset the tartness.
29applehill.com
Fuji: The Fuji, originating in Japan, grows well in
Apple Hill. It is large and round and has stripes similar
to the Gala. The longer a Fuji is on the tree the sweeter
it becomes. Because the Fuji is the “current trend”
apple, the supply usually doesn’t meet the demand,
and it’s a little more expensive.
McIntosh: An old variety. Many of our customers
want McIntosh apples because that’s the apple they
think of when they think of home. The McIntosh is
harvested early, and if kept in the fridge, will stay
snappy and tart for months.
Gravenstein: This apple is very early, hence not in
abundance when people generally visit Apple Hill.
However, there are several growers who grow the
Gravenstein, and they are in demand for applesauce
and pie baking. Gravenstein apples are tart, with a
sweet tang, a very good applesauce and apple butter apple.
Mutsu: A large Asian apple. Good for eating.
Winesap: A very old variety. The
Winesap apple is a keeper. Hard and crisp, with a
sweet/tart quality. It is dark red with gold highlights;
round, and of medium size.
Arkansas Black: An old variety and a favorite of
transplanted eastern and southern visitors. A very
hard apple, picked very late, a good keeper.
Braeburn: An oblong apple, red with gold shadings.
Off-white meat, crisp and juicy. Good for eating.
Pink Lady: A great eating apple.
In memory of Joan Christine Delfino, 1933-2014

Historic Main Street is a fun place to visit any time of year. This year will be “extra special,” because Placerville was one of 20 towns in North America that won the “Main Street Matters” contest. Thanks to Benjamin Moore Paint Co., buildings on Historic Main Street will be revitalized with a fresh coat of paint this June, and the town is coming together to supplement the paint job with other revitalization projects that show our community pride! Come see how it turns out at the Main Street Matters Reveal Celebration on June 21st and re-connect with this great, historic gold-rush town.
In addition, the Placerville Downtown Association is busy working on a great line-up of events to please everyone. This year will feature many events to stimulate your senses, like Bell Tower Brewfest, Craft Fair, Oktoberfest, Art & Wine Festival and many more.

Come Find your Thrill …… It’s called Apple Hill®
What if there were farms where the air was so crystal clear you
could smell apples baking in every breeze. What if visitors were
welcomed, strollers were encouraged and people met each other
with smiles. What if the best seat in the house was overlooking
acres of orchards, vineyards or Christmas trees. These farms exist
and you’ll find this and much more at the Apple Hill™ Farms.
At an Apple Hill™ Farm, get ready to introduce your children to
families who farm for a living and each kid grows up knowing that
the family farm is more than a place to live, but is truly a way of
life. Summer jobs are found right there on the farm and carry on
into fall. The fruit you eat is the same fruit that the farmer feeds
his own family—you know it’s healthy!
Dusty paths lead down to where the berries grow and red and
purple stained fingers are the norm. Visitors run feverishly to the
pumpkin patches seeking out the biggest or the best giant gourd
they can find. Those who have harvested on the “Hill” in the past
know that bringing the Radio Flyer wagon along for the trek is
always a good idea. By days end you will have filled it with cider,
pies, produce, crafts and possibly a worn out child or two.
If you haven’t experienced a day or spent a weekend among
the Apple Hill™ farms, you need to know that there are over 50
farms offering a variety of activities, produce, wines, micro-brews,
and hand-made crafts. Tree canopied side roads will lead you to
off-the-beaten-path farms that are known for their baked goods,
their jams and jellies, hay or pony rides, fishing, pie eating contests
and kids’ activities or you-pick fruits. Each farm has special activities
that may include barbeques and tastings, a nature trail, live music
or their dine-in or alfresco lunch offerings. In late spring, you-pick
berries bring visitors from nearby cities and towns. By fall, there are
festivals and seasonal celebrations all along the Apple Hill™ map.
2014 is the Apple Hill™ Growers’ 50th anniversary year and
that tells you something about the kind of experience you’ll have if
you spend a day or two visiting the Apple Hill™ Farms. There is
gold in these hills: it’s hanging on the trees, ripening on the vine;
being pressed or jarred for a taste of summer during the winter
months, chilled, or baked and ready to be devoured. Live life like
it is meant to be lived: with a fork in hand, a slice of hot pie,
ice cream and caramel sauce and a smile on your face.
Come find your thrill – it’s called Apple Hill.™
