Stumbled upon Old Wives Tales that are True ... about food in my search for information on predicting the weather based upon the number of apples on the trees. Haven't found anything of substance yet ... just some other mentions.

Season of Apples
Oy! In case you haven't noticed, apples have grown great this year!
A friend told me an old wives tale that stated IF there are a lot of apples on the apple trees THEN we'll have a bad winter.
Well, another friend told me that the wives tale that she knew was IF there were a lot of apples on the apple trees and nuts on the walnut trees THEN we'd definitely have a bad winter! She also said that farmers would say that if a hornets nest was high in the trees then we'd get a lot of snow.
