“Can she bake a cherry pie?” asks the southern song. If she could, she baked with the South’s only pie cherry, the Dyehouse. Planted widely from 1870 to 1940, it vanished when Michigan monopolized sour cherry production after WWII. After the Savers of Flavor spark a radio hunt for the lost fruit, Kevin Mitchell and David Shields uncover a surviving Dyehouse tree on a Kentucky artist’s farm.
