This is a work in progress, initialized in a photo transfer workshop with Susan Detroy.

In my home-away-from-home in Sebastopol, California, apples, orchards parades featuring apples and apple festivals are a part of the city history and culture. I always loved the down-home, home-grown experience of this tradition, and I’m sad to witness it’s waning with the onset of wineries taking over in the region.

So I choose to honor the beauty, bear witness to the permaculture, and savor the sweetness of this tradition.
