Great-grandmother apple tree grows in Lubec


Great-grandmother apple tree grows in Lubec
by Lora Whelan
 
     Tucked away from view at the Red Point Park in Lubec is what apple enthusiasts call a "great-grandmother tree." Her origin is most likely linked to the cellar hole right next door and the farm that was at one time owned by the A. Knight family. Todd Little Siebold, a professor of history at the College of the Atlantic who has been mentored by Maine apple guru John Bunker, believes the tree could be either from the early 19th century or late 18th century. While it's not the oldest apple tree in the state, it's in the top tier of "ancients," says Little Siebold.
