The Noblest of Fruits







One of Ms. Pringle's English classes planted an apple tree near the garden in honor of a local soldier. The variety is "Liberty Apple," which is fitting, considering why the tree was planted. Liberty is one of the best disease resistant varieties of apple in New England. I've already spied some apples that have started growing. Can't wait for the fruit in the fall...thanks guys for planting the tree!


"Surely the apple is the noblest of fruits."
-- Henry David Thoreau, Wild Apples
