SEQUIM — Hundreds of varieties of apples and pears will be displayed at the Olympic Orchard Society’s Fall Fruit Show on Saturday.

The show, which will feature dozens of growers, will be from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Trinity United Methodist Church, 100 S. Blake Ave., Sequim.

Admission will be free to members of the Olympic Orchard Society (family membership for 2020 is $20). Non-members will pay $3 per person or $5 per family.

Show chair Marilyn Couture said the group will have about 25 types of apples at their perfect ripeness for tasting.

The Fall Fruit Show comes around every other year, she said, and features fruit trees for sale, educational speakers and an opportunity for people to identify their fruit.

Couture said experts from Oregon and Washington plan to help identify apples. Visitors are encouraged to bring four samples that are unwashed.

Speakers scheduled throughout the event will discuss cider tips, pruning, various growth methods and pests.

The show is for anyone, Couture said, especially those “with a backyard tree that they want to expand or know what they’ve got.”

Olympic Orchard Society, a Western Cascade Fruit Society Chapter, promotes interest in growing fruit- or nut-bearing trees Clallam County.

This nonprofit organization brings together orchardists and backyard growers who support each other and encourage propagation of desirable fruit and nut varieties suited to the local climate.

Couture said locals can connect with members to seek advice and possibly receive a home visit for more help.

“We want to help grow better fruit in the area,” she said.
