Apple Tasting and Tour of Dave Beamer’s Front Yard Experimental Apple Orchard

WHEN: Saturday, September 21 – 10:30am – 12:30pm

WHERE: 4018 Modoc Road, Santa Barbara.

WHAT: Is it possible to grow many more apple tree 
cultivars in coastal California than we thought 
we could? Inspired by the pioneering work of 
Kuffel Creek Apple Nursery in Riverside, 
California (“Apple Trees for Hot Climates and the Tropics” - see

Dave Beamer has been experimenting with various 
apple cultivars to see which grow best in Santa 
Barbara. We’ll see his young trees and among the 
varieties we’ll hopefully taste may be Ashmead’s 
Kernel, Spitzenburg, Snow Apple (also called 
Fameuse), Hudson’s Golden Gem, Golden Nugget. 
Dave will also share his experience growing many other apple trees.

HOW MUCH: Free for CRFG members, $3-5 donation suggested for non-members.
