Hi,

    I'm a newbie. I am involved in planting a mixed fruit/nut orchard, have access to an old orchard, and am attempting to care/prune existing neglected trees. I am ready to invest in a good orchard ladder. What should I look for? What to avoid? Brands? Sources in my area (WNC)? What is the going price per foot? What height (if only one ladder)? What 2nd choice if I feel the need for a second?

Thanks,
