Join me at the Los Altos History Museum and celebrate the taste of apricots! I will be signing my cookbook/memoir, “For the Love of Apricots: Recipes and Memories of the Santa Clara County” from 10 until 11:30. I hope you’ll stop by and see me during the fair.

The Los Altos History Museum will be highlighting the apricots that gave birth to their community at its 2022 Apricot STEM Fair. Located in one of the few remaining apricot orchards, the museum attracts families seeking to learn more about the agricultural roots of the “Valley of Heart’s Delight” and how it transitioned into today’s Silicon Valley.

In addition to the specialty tasting, the Apricot STEM Fair will also feature orchard-themed games, as well as Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) hands-on activities presented by many of the valley’s outstanding and most innovative STEM programs. It will be a fun day with a little bit of everything for the young at heart of all ages!

Admission to the Apricot STEM Fair is $7 per person, payable at the gate. Free for ages 12 and under. All proceeds from the STEM Fair support the Museum’s Permanent Exhibition Capital Campaign.
