Tom Brown's Heritage Applesearch Organization
(1)
Tom Brown's Heritage Applesearch Organization, based in Clemmons, NC, is dedicated to the preservation and discovery of lost heritage apple varieties that are part of America's agricultural history. Since 1999, the organization has identified over 1,000 unique apple varieties, working to ensure these diverse fruits are saved for future generations through grafting and donations to preservation orchards.
Heritage apples, cherished by previous generations for their various uses—from eating fresh to making cider—are at risk of disappearing as older trees are removed and knowledgeable individuals pass away. The organization's mission emphasizes the importance of these historic apples and the need to locate and protect them before they are lost forever.
