episode In Search of the Thunderbolt in Montezuma County cover

Description

In the early 1900s, a man from eastern Tennessee brought an apple to Montezuma County called the Thunderbolt, and the apple became common in southwest Colorado's flourishing orchard economy. A century later, the Thunderbolt had all but vanished. This is the story of two apple detectives who go looking for a rare apple, and how that search altered the course of their lives. **** Production and musical scoring by Adam Burke. Support from Southwest Colorado's 250-150 Local Organizing Committee [https://www.colorado150southwest.org/].
