Explore the Content of Hudson Valley Apples

Hudson Valley Apples is the product of two intensive sessions conducted by Bard College Center for Experimental Humanities and the EH Digital History Lab and carried out over the winter breaks of 2017 and 2018 with teams of students. This website exhibits the content that the students from both sessions gathered through primary source research in three distinct types of archives (local historical society, personal collection, and academic institution); analyzed in the context of the agricultural history of the nation, state, region, and micro-region; investigated in a series of oral histories with current apple growers; and, synthesized into narratives that tell a compelling story of agricultural change.
