SOME RECENT STORIES OF THE POMACIOUS FRUIT
Today's report just shares some recent stories about apples.

I learned about some of these from my readers. So, not exactly news to everyone. But, enjoy.

Apple Tourism: This BBC report takes us to Kazakhstan and the Father of Apples, where the original wild apple species faces an existential threat.

I think of this story as a natural sequel to an earlier BBC visit to Kazakhstan's apples (with photo essay), which I shared in 2009.

The recent story is part of a culinary roots series from BBC Travel.

Urban Foraging: Speaking of wild apples, the New York Times ran an entertaining short story back in September about finding then in the city.

To come: Stories on cider and Honeycrisp alternatives.
