Skilled grafters will be available and happy to graft your newly aquired (or bought from home) apple scions for just $5! (excludes rootstock, purchased seperately). Apples only, 1 scion per rootstock. These do not come with guarantees, as much of the success hinges on aftercare (planting it without dislodging the graft, watering it, etc) But in our experience they are very very likely to succeed with basic care.

Apple trees will be available for sale (some only $5! While stocks last)
Varieties available include the infamous Montyโs Surprise, Kiddsโ Orange Red, Braeburn, Freyburg, and Golden Delicious.
There will also be some fun and unusual fruiting plants for sale for the enthusiasts and collectors, and to stimulate Tree Crop related discussions!
