Westfield Seek-No-Further Apple

These medium-sized apples have thick, smooth skin that is yellow or yellowish-green with red blushes.Inside, the dense flesh is fragrant and crisp. Good flavour with many notes to it.

The tree prefers cooler summers to produce well.

Cooking Tips

A fresh-eating apple that is not generally good for cooking, though it does make very good sauce.

History Notes

Found in Westfield, Maine sometime before 1750, possibly much earlier. Was a very popular apple in Massachusetts in the second half of the 1700s.

Literature & Lore

Rated “very good to best” by S.A. Beach in “Apples of New York” (1905). Beach was sparing with his praise, so this is a high accolade indeed coming from him.
