Tasting History: The Kino Heritage Fruit Trees Project and Mission Garden
During the 17th and early 18th centuries, Jesuit missionaries such as Father Eusebio Francisco Kino and later Franciscans introduced European fruit trees to New Spain, now the United States–Mexico borderlands. Jesús M. García, Research Associate, Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, discusses the importance of pomegranates, figs, quinces, and olives, which were a significant part of the mission community’s agriculture, which also included grape vineyards, grain fields, vegetable and medicinal gardens, and livestock. Jesus will also provide an overview of The Kino Heritage Fruit Tree Project, based at the Arizona-Sonora Museum, Tucson.
Information about how to access the Zoom session will be emailed to participants after registration. This virtual event is FREE, but pre-registration is required. Seats are limited.
