Show Notes

Did you realize that the luscious shiny piece of fruit you see on the supermarket shelf, has been 20 years in the making?

Their "parents" have had a party and created a bunch of promising seeds, and from those seeds, thousands of seedlings have followed. And from those thousands of seedlings, maybe, just maybe, one will make it to the big time. It's a massive, expensive gamble!

Join us as we step inside the fantastic story of breeding a new apple. We'll tap into the mind of Steve Potbury from Fruitcraft NZ, who lives and breathes variety development. Pick up some awesome facts that you never knew you needed to know, and wow your buddies at your next BBQ!
