Sustainable Orchard Management taught by CALS prof Greg Peck (@DoctorApples) is 1 of 16 courses – from fruit physiology to winemaking – that brings students to the Cornell Orchards, a 22-acre farm that hosts active research on apples, grapes, & more. cals.cornell.edu/news/2024/10/c…

Looking forward to sharing a bit about my research with the Pacific Northwest cider community. instagram.com/p/DChjfMmTS7r/…

@FrankSpeaks3 Congrats to Tucker!

And then this happened. My youngest (a hokie) finished his Architecture degree.

@Adam_HWells @Cider_Review Congrat, Adam. A copy has already made its way across the pond!

That stinks: @BigRedFoodSci researchers are working with wineries, manufacturers and NY state to eliminate the rotten-egg smell in some canned wines by subtly altering the product’s formulation and packaging. @ASEVtweets @CornellCALS news.cornell.edu/stories/2024/0…

@EStafne I would love to see a ROI assessment of faculty/staff time on SCRI grants. It’s great to be a PI on one right now and be a Co-PD on one that just got submitted. But there is a huge time cost for each submission.

@LynnSosnoskie youtu.be/7uaRUNmtll8?si… there’s method in the Magners

@Trevor_FJ Hah! I once had to change “Cidery” to “cider producer” in an academic paper because a reviewer said no such word existed!

There was no word for a place to make cider until recently Merriam-Webster USA dictionary ci· dery ˈsī-də-rē plural cideries. : a place where cider is produced. 23 Dec 2023 The OED only has an entry for an adjective in 1887 - Thomas Hardy #cidery

@simoningall It’s such an amazing collection!

Checking in on the waxed fruit collection today.

@DoctorApples and his lab at Cornell report that reducing the crop load on hard cider apple trees minimizes biennial bearing (a large crop one year and then little to no crop the next) and increases profitability. #HortScience doi.org/10.21273/HORTS… @CornellCALS

An estimated 70 million apple trees are planted on @CornellAgriTech’s Geneva rootstocks around the world – and that number is likely to grow with the release of three new rootstocks — Geneva 257, Geneva 484 and Geneva 66. @CornellCALS news.cornell.edu/stories/2023/1…

@JulieSuarez12 @CornellCALS @AngryOrchard They did a great job on that book. I highly recommend it.

DYK that NY once had 18M apple trees planted in 1875? And we’re now home to over 100 cideries? Enjoying this great book featuring ⁦@DoctorApples⁩ ⁦@CornellCALS ⁦@AngryOrchard⁩ partnership for research & innovation in the heart of the Hudson Valley!

Join us at #cidercon2023, where @doctorapples of @Cornell will discuss the use of mechanical harvesters for #cider apple #orchards including videos of their recent trials. #cidercon #pickcider #cidermaking #cidermaker #orchardist #craftcider ciderassociation.org/tracks/from-th…

Opinion: Based on the fruit offerings in the dining halls, one wouldn't guess that Cornell has a world-class agriculture program. Aurora Weirens '25 calls for that to change. cornellsun.com/2023/09/24/wei…
