Song of an Orchardist | Beyond the Nest (Rochester)

Song of an Orchardist


*The event has already taken place on this date: Wed, 09/12/2018
An orchard in September is lyric - as well as bustling and practical and exuberant. The pickers, the trucks, the bins, the baskets, the red red apples, and the yellow and the green ones - are all like the refrain of a very very old favorite song sung once again, and sung once a year, in September.

Monty Mason, an Albion fruit grower and a Cornell friend of my dad’s, captured this spirit in his collection of poems and ditties and philosophical thoughts titled ’Song of An Orchardist’. Monty wrote them with a twinkle in his eye, and a deep knowledge that fruit growing is a se-rious business filled with risk and hope and reward - all of which he rendered contagious through the writings of his pen. This luncheon captures the reflective side of the apple world. Enjoy our introduction of our ‘Song of an Orchardist’ farmhouse conserves complimenting the many lyric and lovely tastes of this thoughtful celebration of the apple orchard in autumn.
