Under The Apricot Blossoms
Spring orchard pop-up
Every spring, Armenia’s orchards burst in a stunning display of fruit blossoms, the most beloved of which are the country’s apricot trees. Last year, we decided to celebrate the annual blossoming of the apricot trees by hosting a pop-up in the orchard of our friend and 2492 Travel chef and host, Davit. We’re doing it again this year, and you can expect a half day of local foods and spirits, moments of serenity under the blooming trees, and lots of stories related to Armenia’s national fruit. Transportation from and back to Yerevan included!
