We all love a good story.
This story will make your mouth water, and when good food is paired with family heritage the story is even better.
Chelan Fresh™ is a great food story. We are grower-owned, representing family-owned farms, many of which are now being led by fourth or fifth generations. Sons and Daughters have followed in the footsteps of their parents and grandparents, in some cases great and great-great grandparents. Growing fruit and growing it well, is just in their genes.

Rockit™ Upcycle Challenge
The Challenge went out on a Wednesday with a COVID-19 WFH care kit and instructions to Upcycle a Rockit™ shuttle into your best creation. By the following Monday photos and videos had poured in from over 40 Chelan Fresh employees. View all the ultra creative submissions from our Chelan Fresh employees.
The Chelan Fresh family is branching into new apple flavors!
- On a sunny day, one amazing bee collected pollen from an unknown apple blossom and then landed on a Honeycrisp blossom. Mother Nature did her part and the SugarBee® apple was born! This apple is perfectly sweet, crisp and juicy.
- Rockit™ is a deliciously sweet and crisp miniature apple that is naturally good for you! Packed with essential vitamins, minerals and fiber to support everyday health for active kids and adults. Rockit™ apples deliver big flavor to fuel your day!
- Lucy™ apples were discovered in the heart of Central Washington and are Naturally Red Inside. Lucy™Rose is deep red and sweet with a hint of berry. Lucy™Glo is blushing yellow, tasty and tart with a hint of sweet.
- Escape Ordinary® with KORU® which is perfect for snacking and baking, slow to brown, aromatic flavor and crisp flesh.

New, Crisp and Sweet!
We are happy to share that there is a lot of excitement about our all new apple variety! Large and round with bright red and yellow coloring, the new SugarBee® apple from Chelan Fresh has a crispy firm texture and is unbelievably sugar-sweet! Our delicious SugarBee® apples are lovingly grown and hand-picked on the fertile slopes of the Cascade Mountains in central Washington. They are delivered fresh from the grower to you. Touching sky and earth, our Chelan Fresh orchards are cooled by crisp air lifted from the beautiful Columbia River.
