Great looking orchard!

That figures.....I wondered about that too. Thanks for the info. For what it's worth, my scions on order come from a CFIA certified virus free facility, so do you think I could send those to folks? On another note, it drives me crazy that we have a replica of the GRIN facility up here...

Would any of you guys be willing to send a couple sticks to Canada? I would like to add some of the varieties you guys have, but I have trouble finding a source up here. I'd gladly pay for them. I have a few that I could trade if anybody wanted golden delicious, spy, Cortland, maybe bishop's...

You guys certainly have some great bucks to look forward too for next year. This guy made it. Our season ended dec 2. This is easily the best buck seen on the property in the last few years. Hope he decides to stay! We have a few does left too. We don't shoot any does but I'm in an either sex...

Beautiful tribute, sorry for your loss.

That's a nice one! See it just fine

Looking good merle! Wish I could get my little nephews excited for the woods, I keep losing to the ipad.

I have a bunch of apples to plant, 15 white oaks that I have grown, and have 25 more ordered, 20 dwarf chinkapins to try. Going to try to get more sumac to go in a couple of damp places. I'm also really curious when I hear of all you guys planting norways, they are a weed up here that are...

one piece of advice I really found helpful was the importance of having sharp tools, somebody said if you can't shave with them, don't graft with them. I took this to heart, sent all my knives to a professional cutler in the city, he did them all by hand, and to say they are sharp is an...

yup, hopelessly addicted now, came on fast too! Can't wait to move these out in the spring to make room for the new grafts....

So, I just wanted to say a big thank you to all of you who took the time to respond to my questions about grafting over the last couple years. For the informative PM's I got and encouraging words. I ordered 250 rootstocks last year and begged, ordered and collected scions where I could...

Same, no movement up here yet. Old man winter sure is hanging on, this week looks alot better
