Each year millions of Americans spend their autumn days picking apples from the many orchards that dot the country. But why? And when did this tradition start?
In this livestream episode, we explore the fascinating history of apple picking in America, tracing its journey from the introduction of apples by early European settlers to the rise of today’s popular you-pick orchards.
Join Patrick and John as they delve into the apple’s transformation from a colonial staple used primarily for cider to a symbol of American autumn traditions.
Learn how industrialization, agritourism, and the birth of you-pick farms shaped the modern apple-picking experience, and uncover the hidden costs behind the labor that brings apples from the orchard to your hands.
