Probably the oldest living apple tree in North America, possibly of the Western Hemisphere, grows near the site of the Hudson Bay Company's Fort Vancouver (now Vancouver, Washington). This Canadian apple seedling is the one remainder of the first orchard of the Oregon Country, the seeds of which were planted by Dr. John McLoughlin, then chief of the Hudson Bay Company operations.
