Sam Van Aken, a professor at Syracuse University and innovative artist, is set to discuss his pioneering “Tree of 40 Fruit” project on November 20th.
This remarkable tree, created through advanced grafting techniques, can produce 40 different types of stone fruits, including peaches, plums, apricots, and cherries.
A Blend of Art and Science
Van Aken’s project merges art, agriculture, and technology. Each tree is meticulously crafted, showcasing a wide variety of fruit on a single trunk.
This living artwork has captured international attention for its scientific ingenuity and aesthetic beauty.
