Then it’s time to take some hints from the work of artist Jane Alden Stevens who documented the fast fading art of apple tattoos in Japan, and put on your own brand on your backyard yield.
The practice has actually been traced as far back as twelfth-century Arabic sources, enjoying a heyday in the Paris markets of the nineteenth century, but most recently seen on a mass-produced scale in Japan, where they’re often marked with the symbol Magazine Photoshoot For good health.
The labor-intensive nature of the process is spelling its doom as the children of farmers seek their fortunes far from the orchards, but that doesn’t mean you can’t branch out this summer in your gardening experiments if there’s a tree or two handy.
