Cider makers are betting on foraged apples for climate resilience
This story first appeared on Civil Eats. If you know where to look in the fall, you'll find patches of ground turned red with wild apples in certain parts of Ithaca, New York. Steve Selin knows where to look — and he seeks that bounty out in his role as cider maker at South Hill Cider. Although Selin owns a small orchard just outside of downtown Ithaca, he also spends time searching the hedgerows and forests around his part of the Finger Lakes for wild apples to use in his cider.
