Join author, fruit explorer, orchardist, and cider maker David Buchanan for a discussion about early American apples and Maine’s hard cider revival. Every fall he drives the backroads of Maine, searching for bittersweet crabapples and abandoned heirloom trees. David will talk about his efforts to blend conservation with a small business, his search for unusual flavors, and his belief that local food, at its best, reflects our history and sense of place. See you there!

Join us at 7:30 pm in the back yard of the Nelson complex
