I grew up on a farm out by Huntley that had apple trees. I miss those apple trees.

I do believe the people who moved to that property after us took out those apple trees which makes me sad. They were sweet and tart at the same time. Best apples I have ever eaten. Wish I could find that apple anywhere. Ruth Bright owned the farm maybe something still remains there that could help the apple project. Route 2 Box 313 82240. I would love to hear that somehow a viable seed or seedling remained.

Another great episode! My wife and I were inspired to put gala apple slices on our grass fed beef tacos last night in honor of this show! It complimented it very nicely and added a much welcomed healthy sweetness! Long live the Wyoming apple.

As I became interested in the propagation of Hops and Hemp in Wyoming I hurd about the apple in Wyoming. In this growing zone..? No.😳 So amazing that people had the wherewithal to seek out and develop cultivars that thrive here. The potential for food production in this state originally envisioned by government funded irrigation projects is so underdeveloped to this day. Alcova was intended more for land irrigation than electrical power production. The Hendricks Irrigation Project flows mainly across range land for livestock and not the plant based food it was created for. The banana of today was created for it's stability to make it to market not for the incredible flavor other cultivars have. Today it is in the same danger of extinction it's economic predecessor was. The Banana Wars? Read your history. Nature provides incredibly better cultivars in taste. Our children mainly experience what is available in grocery stores. These apples and the people that have developed and propagated these heritage level cultivars truly are people that deserve to be remembered. Find that lost one!! Support your local farms. Magic happens!!
