Applejack and Rainbow Dash are spending some time together at the family farm, alone, during a blizzard. A quiet, peaceful story set around the Hearth's Warming holidays.

Far too busy to make the trip to town hall, Rainbow Dash does Applejack a favor and brings her the quarterly crop reports.

"Romance" tag added because story contains: A stolen kiss.

Violet Tempest has just about everything she could want in life: a satisfying career, both a sister and sister-in-law who are Elements of Harmony, and who love her dearly, and an adorable kitty cat named Mr. Doldrums. What she doesn't need is an adventure that takes her away from her class, or her adopted city, but if she doesn't embark on a journey to solve the greatest weather crisis Equestria has ever known, there won't be any class, city, or kitty to call home.

This is a hearth's warming story about friends you've yet to meet. It is a story about love, hope, and the idea that not everything has a price that can be paid, or a lesson that can't be learned. I hope you enjoy it.

Life on the farm isn't just about chores, it's about preparing for the unexpected, accepting change, and embracing the ponies in your life who help make that change. Applejack has lived by that axiom since she was just a filly, but what do you do when, all of a sudden, the unexpected embraces you?

This is an AppleDash fic.

This is a sequel to: The Fruits of Our Labors (Book 4)

Rainbow Dash is given the task of buying a vehicle for Applejack, so she can haul her apples back and forth to the market. Fluttershy assists her with this major purchase. Hopefully, hilarity ensues.

Winding Whisper and his wife, Allegro Zephyr, finally have some time to themselves, and they will spend it together, catching up on all of the things she's missed while away on business.

Applejack is requested by HRH Princess Cadance, to travel north to the Crystal Empire in order to assist her and Shining Armor in cultivating the long lost crystal apple, a fruit imagined to have powerful healing properties, when grown properly. Unfortunately, the crystal ponies lack such farming skills, so who better than an Element who is also an experienced apple farmer?

This is a sequel to: Orange and Blue, I Do (Book 3)

There is a later sequel to this story: Cultivating Love (Book 5)

Applejack and Rainbow Dash are spending a cold, wintery day together, around the table, sharing hot tea and cookies. This is an AppleDash Quickie (not that kind of quickie, you perv), and is a short story set in the same universe as "Of Clouds, Seeds, and Apple Trees," as well as "Saddlebags, Sun, and On the Run," "Hearth's Warming's Heart," and "Orange and Blue, I Do." It is the latest story in the chronology.

(LotusVerse Story #5)

Applejack and Rainbow Dash are preparing to get married. Amidst the hustle and bustle and busy activity surrounding such a joyous occasion, Violet Tempest, Rainbow Dash's younger sister, arrives in Ponyville, in order to start out on her journey to find a direction for her life, something that will bring her the same joy and happiness she sees in the love between her sister and her soon to be sister-in-law.
