Today in the orchard
The digging crew, April 15, 2025.
This morning we dug most of the trees in our nursery destined for other homes and orchards this spring. It rained early and then again late in the afternoon. The middle of the day, however, was cool, gray and still, the perfect conditions for tree digging. It was a stellar team effort. Gene Cartwright of Whaleback Cider, our neighbor Marc Cavatorta of Foxfire Farm, Skylar, Cammy and I dug, sorted, wrapped and bagged dozens of trees. We still have more to dig for folks who are not yet ready to plant and for ourselves. We also have some trees that are uncalled for, including some not listed on the website. If you’re looking for weird and rare trees, feel free to be in touch. We’re happy to make you a deal you can’t refuse.
