SUMMARY:Old Southern Apples & New Opportunities - NAFEX 2024 Virtual Conference\, Session 3
DESCRIPTION:Go back on a journey in time\, deep into the heart of Southern homesteads and orchards where wonderful apple varieties were being grown. Overtime like many of these apples became lost as old southern apples were not immune to conformity and many varieties fell into obscurity. Many varieties are lost for good. However\, if it weren’t for some modern day fruit explorers like Creighton Lee Calhoun\, Tom Brown\, and Joyce Neighbors we would have lost a lot more. Today even after both Calhoun and Neighbors have passed their rediscoveries still live on at historical orchards and backyards across the US. \nJoin us as Jason Bowen and Josh Fuder discuss Old Southern Apples and their place in the Southern foodways. They will provide background into regional varieties and nurseries. Interesting stories on apples like Junaluska and answer a nagging question. Do Limbertwigs really have a Limbertwiggy flavor? Learn what is being done to preserve these large collections of southern apples and how southern apples may fit in a warming plan? \n— \nThis interactive webinar is part of the North American Fruit Explorers (NAFEX) 2024 Virtual Conference\, featuring three days of inspiring and informative online sessions for fruit growers\, November 7-9\, via ZOOM or by phone.
