Second Annual Heritage Apple Day & Community Press
Oct 7, 2024
By Lopez Island Historical Society & Museum
Saturday, October 12, 2024, 1:00 - 4:00pm, Lopez Museum, 28 Washburn Pl
Join Lopez Museum, Kwiaht, and the Gleaners for our second annual celebration of heritage apples and community apple pressing!

Once known as the Fruit Basket of Washington, the San Juan Islands and Lopez have a long history of cultivating orchard fruit. Learn about the diverse and rare array of heritage apple varieties that still thrive on Lopez today.

We will have grinders and presses available for community use, unique varietals to taste, and seasonal treats.

Bring a jug, a mug, and lug of apples (if you’ve got one) and help us celebrate autumn and biodiversity on Lopez!

This event is a part of the Lopez Farm Tour.
