I'm glad to know they aren't completely a Northern California regional specialty; since the orchards are rapidly being destroyed .actually, the Gravenstein apple or Gravensteiner is an apple from Northern Germany/Denmark (just at the border) and still produced over here. It is namend after Schloss Gravenstein (Gråsten castle). Because it is not an efficient pollinator, the variety is grown less and less... *sigh* but it is still one of my favorite apples.
