Folks in Maine should keep an eye out for the grafting workshops offered
by MOFGA. I attended one yesterday and I have 7 newly grafted trees to
plant. There was plenty of root stock, a wide variety of scion wood,
and 2 very knowledgeable instructors. The first part of the day was
spent on whip & tongue grafts - in the afternoon we had a top grating
demonstration. The most interesting part of that was seeing the top
grafts done by the course in prior years. I think the root stock &
scions all came from FEDCO - so they deserve a big thanks too! (Thanks
John!)
The next workshop on bud grafting happens mid summer.
