Apples have been grown in the Huon Valley for over 170 years. It was common for early European settlers to plant just one variety of each tree in order to establish a family orchard - a practice that laid the foundations for a booming apple industry. A peak in the middle of the 20th century saw Tasmania export millions of boxes of apples overseas, primarily to the UK and Europe. It’s history that gave rise to Tasmania’s nickname of the ‘Apple Isle.
BW Griggs & Sons are sixth generation apple and cherry growers who have carved their own niche on the riverbanks at Franklin. Growing a small portfolio of popular varieties, the Griggs’ stumbled across what has become their signature fruit almost 20 years ago. “I remember it well,” recalls owner Dane Griggs. “It was February and all the apples were still pretty green. A limb of apples was spotted that had a lot more colour than is usual at that time of the year.”
And so ‘Rubigold’ was born. A new variety out of the Huon. “We named it for its red skin and golden flesh,” Dane continues, “However my grandmother’s name was also Ruby so it’s kind of nice to have that connection too. Rubigold is only grown here in this one valley in the world...so when you bite into one you can be sure of its origin. They are all from our family orchards here in this one Tasmanian valley.”
