Traditional Apple Racks

The chances are (and let's hope so) that you won't be able to consume all of your apple crop at harvesting time, so storage becomes of premier importance - and these Traditional Apple Racks offer a top class solution. They are manufactured from beech, and this pale hardwood is easily worked to create the robust frame and removable shelves, all designed to allow maximum airflow around the stored fruits - essential to maintain quality and flavour.
