As proud third generation apple growers on the pristine Granite Belt in Queensland we really do know our apples.
For 70 years our family has grown and nurtured hundreds and thousands of apple trees to produce quality, juicy, crisp apples for generations of Australians.
Family patriarch, Pietro “Peter” Savio, leaves his young wife Paolina and 2 month old son and migrates from northern Italy to Pozieres, near Stanthorpe.

Pietro and Paolina work very hard & acquire neighbouring land and have three more children.
