SUMMARY:Food for Thought: Endangered Eating - Heirloom Cider Apples
DESCRIPTION:NJCH is proud to support Piscataway Public Library’s “Food for Thought\,” a series of events exploring the cultural and historical significance of food in our lives\, through an Action Grant. \n— \nJoin author Sarah Lohman to hear about her book Endangered Eating\, with a special focus on her heirloom cider apples chapter. Lohman’s research for Endangered Eating brought her to New Jersey’s own Ironbound Farm and Ciderhouse. \nApples have been called the country’s “most endangered food.” Currently\, 86% of apple varieties grown in the US have vanished\, and four out of five are on the brink of extinction. But thanks to the hard cider revival\, rare apples are being saved. In this class\, we’ll cover the history of apples and hard cider in America\, and trace the stories of three revived rare apples. \nThis event is part of our Food for Thought event series. \nThe Food for Thought project was made possible by a grant from the New Jersey Council for the Humanities\, a state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Any views\, findings\, conclusions\, or recommendations expressed in this event do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities or the New Jersey Council for the Humanities. \nRegistration through the library is required at https://piscataway.librarycalendar.com/events/list?keywords=food%20for%20thought.
