What's a "scion exchange"? Well, if you're interested in learning about how to graft different varieties to your fruit tree, come down and find out! Our members collect and share scions of apple, peach, cherry, apricot, mulberry, and many other fruit trees that are dormant at this time of year. A multitude of cultivars such as Pippin, Ashmead's Kernel, Montmorency, Blenheim, and rarer ones, etc.
There will be demonstrations of grafting technique. Most plant materials are free with admission. Admission $3
