Pomona, Goddess of Apples

Pomona was a Roman goddess who was the keeper of orchards and fruit trees. Unlike many other agricultural deities, Pomona is not associated with the harvest itself, but with the flourishing of fruit trees. She is usually portrayed bearing a cornucopia or a tray of blossoming fruit. She doesn’t appear to have had any Greek counterpart at all, and is uniquely Roman.

Prayer to Pomona:

Hail to thee Pomona!
Pomorum Patrona,
Guardian Goddess of the orchard,
With your gentle touch may our trees grow strong,
Free from blight,
And heavy with healthy fruit!
