Hi

Below are the responses to my query, with thanks to those who wrote.

Adam, Your best bet is someone who specializes in this stuff, not a 
regular nursery. I use Miller's in Canandaigua. Lisa

Hi Adam,
This is in response to your email inquiry about fruit and nut trees. If 
you are looking to purchase quite a few, you might try Millers Nursery 
in Canandaigua. Their prices are quite good and they have a great 
variety. They sell mostly bare root stock, so things need to get in the 
ground soonish. They have a good online site. They are a family business 
and have been in business for over 50 years.
Hope all is well,
Kelly


Hi Adam,

You might check with Miller Nursery in Canandaigua -- you can mail order 
or shop at the nursery, website is: http://www.millernurseries.com/

Here in Ithaca, Cummins Nursery has various apples and stone fruits, and 
rootstocks: http://www.cumminsnursery.com/

And, you may wish to visit the 2012 Spring Garden Fair & Plant Sale on 
Saturday May 19, 9:00am-1:00pm at the NYS Armory, 1765 Hanshaw Road, off 
Rt. 13 in Ithaca.   This event, coordinated by CCE-Tompkins' own Master 
Gardener Volunteers, brings together 40 or more growers and garden 
groups for the largest event of this kind in the region.  A list of 
confirmed vendors to date can be found here:

Best of luck!

Hi Adam,
Miller Nursery is on Lake Canandaigua and often has some great trees. 
Also Jonathon Bates will be coming to the area in June to teach an 
edible forest gardening class in Watkins Glen and is willing to bring 
plants to people from his nursery in MA Food Forest Farms

Hope that helps.

I bought a couple of apricot trees from Stonyhill Nursery, off of 
Saddlemire Road in the town of Binghamton. Dana Kieser is the owner of 
the nursery and is selling off the last of the fruit trees.  I don't 
know if she still has any of the hazel nuts or not.  She may still have 
one or two dwarf apricot trees left and a few dwarf and semidwarf apple 
trees.  I think she has them buy two get 3rd 25% off or something. I got 
one apricot tree last year to plant at Corbett and I am getting a second 
one this year. She as herbs and will have vegetable plants too.

Best,

Carol Miyake

I would suggest, Cumins nursery, St. Lawrence Fruit and Nut Trees, and Oikos


Not southern tier, but I would recommend Fedco and St. Lawrence Nursery

Greetings

We are interested in purchasing a few more fruit and nut tress (apple 
and chestnut to start), and are looking to see what nursery's are 
recommended in the southern tier as having a wide variety of healthy 
trees of this kind. We are already aware of  bgm & end. agway and W & W 
in Appalachin.

thanks

-Adam
