Fort Walla Walla Museum will host author David Benscoter on Sunday, November 17, from 12 to 3 p.m. to celebrate the publication of his book, "Lost Apples: The Search for Rare and Heritage Apples in the Pacific Northwest."

The book details his work as part of the Lost Apple Project, a program he started to save and preserve apples on the brink of extinction throughout Washington. Beautiful watercolor illustrations are taken from the USDA's pomological collection, and details about his work tracking down these once prolific species are included.

Come and find out exactly what kind of apple tree is growing in Fort Walla Walla Museum's Pioneer Village!
