Proceedings from the First Annual Wild & Seedling Pomological Exhibition – Paperback

Proceedings from the First Annual Wild & Seedling Pomological Exhibition is a compendium of the apples and pears that were featured in the first exhibition of exclusively wild and seedling apples in the memorable past. This book orients the reader toward a rich, emergent culture of fruit exploration as it pertains to feral pommes, and offers a reminder of the origin of cultivated fruit varieties. Profiles of 69 novel apple and pear varieties originating all over the continental US are detailed with stunning full-color portraits, taken by William Mullan, and detailed pomological descriptions written by yours truly, Gnarly Pips. 

Perfect bound, paperback, 80-pages.

A portion of proceeds from the sale of this book are going to be donated Gardening the Community, a Springfield, MA-based food justice organization, so that they may reach their fundraising goal and to go towards the donation of fruit tree nursery stock for the planting of a community orchard.
