Join for Robin Chapman, author of the new book California Apricots – the Lost Orchards of Silicon Valley as she explores the history of the apricot orchards which dominated life in the Santa Clara Valley for almost 100 years. From the Spaniards in the 18th century who planted the first apricot trees to post World War II subdivisions along apricot orchards, Chapman captures this golden age in a series of true stories. Fascinating facts and a unique historical photo collection highlight this warm, nostalgic and engrossing presentation.
