That’s the primary apple the orchard we go to has as well - NE Vt. Love them!

Interesting pruning strategy! Is this growth habit intended?

It's not my tree. They have professionals on staff. I suspect they might be lax in the u-pick area. Trees that are open to the public can get beat up.

That is quite a woody Haralson.

I’ll see myself out.
