Today's episode is all about the pomes! Tune in for our discussion with Matt Kaminsky, aka Gnarly Pippins, on the topic of wild/feral/seedling apples. Matt is a fruit explorer and orchardist who specializes in feral trees that kick it on the sides of highways, edges, and other forgotten places without any management from humans. Why are these trees important? Seedling apples and other pome fruits (like pears) that grow in these edge ecosystems are frequently much more resistant to the many pests and diseases that affect their cultivated cousins in commercial and organic orchards. The genetic diversity of these feral fruits is astounding. There is a movement of like minded fruit hunters who have started to champion these trees in recent years, and Matt is one of these folks. This episode cannot be missed! Check out the links below to learn more about the topics discussed in the episode.
