The 4th Annual Heirloom Apple Tasting took place yesterday. We had the chance to try dozens of apple varieties gathered from ten orchards across Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire and learn more from Sean Turley about the diversity of this seemingly common fruit. I think the Russet, English, Maine, and French categories had some of the very best apples.
The event was organized by The Righteous Russet, Portland Food Map and Fork Food Lab—we’re already talking about how to make it a better event and accessible to more people in 2018.
This was a great time! It was sweet to try all of the different kinds of apples and very informative with the break down of each type before tasting. Thanks for putting it on.
