TODAY IN THE ORCHARD

I led a zoom webinar on describing an apple for the University of Idaho’s Heritage Orchard series. All the attendees were asked to obtain several Honeycrisp apples from a local source and “follow along with Bunk.” The primary goal was to teach everyone the parts of the apple while also getting a sense of what phenotypic characteristics remain consistent from location to location around the country. We hope that attendees will send in their descriptions so we can learn from what they observed. In the morning, apple photographer William Mullen and Ryan Williams came for a too-short visit and tour of the farm.
