Lost Apple Project - Pacific NW

Post by oohger »

KOOL STORY NOT RONA related - The Lost Apple Project is a nonprofit that scours rural woodlands that were once farms, looking for apple trees whose varieties were thought to be extinct. They just had their best year, ever.

Thanks for posting this. Being an "apple detective" sounds like a wonderful way to spend one's day, traipsing around out in nature looking for old trees and abandoned orchards. It's exercise, nature, history and botany all in one! Plus it's really worthwhile. Just think of the genes for flavor and disease resistance that are being rescued! Great article! :)
