Black apples worth $7 each aren't worth it for farmers to mass produce them

[post_page_title]Was Arkansas there first?[/post_page_title]
The Chinese Black Diamond apples aren’t the only ones in the category. Despite the fact customers may not necessarily see black apples as attractive, Arkansas farmers have been cultivating them since at least the middle of the 19th century.

While they’re a very dark red before being picked, they grow even darker as they ripen and continue doing that in storage, eventually making for one of the darkest apples widely available. And you could even grow them yourself, as they’re much less high maintenance than their Chinese brethren.
