Steps to Preserve What’s Here
- Map all the apple trees here in La Veta and create an APPLE MAP. Begin the process of identifying the variety of each tree.
- Care for the existing trees:
- Prune the trees that could benefit from restoration
- Take scions from trees that seem endangered and graft them to insure those varieties stay in town
- Build an awareness and appreciation of our apples trees and their history in La Veta
- Involve young people so the awareness and knowledge continues
