Minnesota’s short growing season makes it tough to run an orchard here. But thanks to the University of Minnesota’s fruit-breeding program, there are a growing number of varieties that can withstand our winters. MN90 producer Andi McDaniel learns the story behind the wildly successful Honeycrisp apple and its U of M-born cousins.
Made possible by the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the vote of Minnesotans on November 4, 2008. Administered by the Minnesota Historical Society.
