Apple Family Tree: (Unofficial, but its fun to have!)

Family Tree Notes:

- If you wish to make an original character, they will not be allowed to be related to any of the tier 1 or tier 2 characters in the family directly, such as Applejack or Braeburn. Any character developments related to the Apple family, either original or tier 3, will need to be obscure cousins or other distant relatives.
- This tree will continue to grow as other apple ponies become characterized on the board role play. There are probably hundreds of ponies that could be listed on the tree, but the are left out in order to give future players a chance to spur their own creativity.
- Original characters can be placed into the tree as they become applied for.
- Just because Granny Smith's family started the orchard that founded Ponyville, doesn't mean that all apple ponies have to be from Sweet Apple Acres. Any extended family outside of this origin would need to be under ancestors that were either siblings to Pokey Oaks or Sew 'n' Sow or above.
- There are several canon apple ponies that are not listed on the tree because their character has not been finalized. Some of the connections with the apple family are questionable, but are sometimes implied because of their country nature and/or because of an apple-related cutie mark. If you are interested in being a low tier cast character or background character, please refer to the character pool that I have conveniently set up. These names and information are drawn from the MLP Wiki page. If you have any extra information that is not already listed, please share.

Obviously this is all unofficial and you do not have to hold true to this tree, but it is a good base to have, no?

The Farms and Orchards!

Sweet Apple Acres is one of two canonized orchards in the show. The other is located in Appleloosa. Several apple orchards should exist all over Equestria, as not only do Apple family ponies live everywhere, but apples are one of the most popular fruit for ponies, too! Other than the name of Sweet Apple Acres and the events and likenesses that have taken place there in the show, all of the following developments for the purpose of canterlot.com world of equestria role play is designed to be an extention of this canonization but yields to future possibilities and canonizations that may and probably will occur in the future of Friendship is Magic.

Buffalo Run Apple Orchard (Appleloosa, Equestria)

Buffalo Run (originally called Palomino Run)

Established a little over two years ago by Braeburn (as of season 3, which I assume some time has passed since Over A Barrel), the orchard was originally named Palomino Run, but was remained Buffalo Run after the events in Over A Barrel. The orchard sits just down the main bridle path from Appleloosa’s main street. Despite being the largest apple orchard in Appleoosa’s area, it is still dwarfed by Sweet Apple Acres, which is double the size. Currently the farm is considered a sole proprietorship, owned and primarily ran by Braeburn with the assistance of his little cousin Apple Pie.

Buaffalo Run’s borders are mostly irregular, following the natural contours of the hills and dry creek beds. The only straight borders follow along one of the bridal paths out of town and the edge of Appleloosa itself; other than the town itself, Buffalo Run has no immediate neighbors with the other smaller orchards spread sparsely in the area. The orchard itself sites on low rolling hills, the highest of which sits the pride of the orchard, Bloomberg, donated by the relatives from Sweet Apple Acres. The only other major physical feature of the land in the orchard is the wide buffalo path that roughly runs through the center of it; this path is used by the local Buffalo tribe for their ceremonial stampedes, although most of the time it is unused.

Crops:
-- Apples – this is what some 80% of the land is used for

  • McIntosh

  • Granny Smith

  • Honeycrisp

  • Red Delicious

  • Gala

  • Fuji

-- Wheat
-- Alfalfa
-- Almonds
-- Pecans
-- Barley
-- Sunflowers

In addition to the above, there is a smaller more personal garden that holds are variety of vegetables and flowers. It is for personal use though and doesn't produce anything for sale.

I dare you to compile a list of every RP that starred at least two members of the Apple family.  :mad:

 

PS: Remember the good ole' days when we summoned the extended family for RPs? Where have those days gone?
