Tree Grafting Workshop & Scion Exchange
Do you wish your ornamental crabapples had large juicy apples? Maybe your fruiting apple tree is too much to handle and you wish you had a crabapple. These are just a couple of reasons to practice the age old art of grafting. For centuries, people have been changing fruit trees to suit their needs, and you can too! In this class, we will begin with a comprehensive presentation that shows you several approaches to grafting. Then we will each graft and take home two semi-dwarf trees of your choice (apple, pear or plum). Root stocks and scion wood (fruit tree cuttings) provided. You will be amazed at the selection of scions that will be available for you to choose from! Additional materials will be available for a fee, if you want to graft more trees. If you have a sharp knife bring it with you, but there will be some available as well.

Please bring “Safe” seeds for exchange and sharing. Bring your catalogs to share and mull over. Your questions regarding seeds, what safe seeds might be, how to start seeds, anything you can think of. We’ll have the whole meeting be about exchanging of the seeds and ideas.

We will start off as usual with a potluck. Please bring a dish to pass (don’t feel you have to make it if you don’t have time), dish, cup, silver and napkin to eat with, and a serving utensil for your dish. This is VERY casual; please come even if you didn’t have time to get or make something and enjoy the company and conversation. There is typically WAY MORE than enough food for all!!!
