Schmeckt!

Apples are the Germans' favorite fruit. Bananas, mangoes and papayas can make their way by container as often as they like. It's just a shame that apples are also coming by container... and that we are increasingly losing taste diversity and biodiversity in general. Because this has many consequences. The attention for apple man Eckart Brandt has been unbroken for years. Just a moment ago, he was sitting on the sofa that NDR had placed under his old apple trees, when he already had to leave for Milan. He has saved more than 350 apple varieties for his Boomgaarden project near Stade. He talks about his favorite apples and about varieties that do not cause allergies. About the primal apples in Kazakhstan. About wonderful orchards and where to find them. Brandt provides current sources of fruit and trees for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. An equally personal.
