EventJohn Bunker, of Super Chilly Farm in Palermo, Maine and Maine Heritage Orchard founder, knows apples. They're all he thinks about. The PMA and Maine Organic Farrmers Association welcome John Bunker as he shares his passion for Maine heritage apple varieties. Following his talk is a reception with tastings of ciders, both hard and fresh, made from Maine heritage varieties as well as samples of apples from John's farm.
