Got Trees? We do! And you can too. By mixing
and matching the scions (the part of the tree that
determines the fruit) and rootstocks (the part of
the tree that controls the size and characteristics
of the tree), the possibilities are endless. Imagine
exotic apples, peaches, pears, Asian pears
and plums of various kinds, waiting for you to
put them together to make your home orchard
and garden a unique landscape.
Get guided hands-on grafting experience and expert advice from HOS members. Scions are free. Rootstock is available for a nominal cost. If you have scion wood you want to share, please bring it! What are you waiting for? Join us. If you have questions, contact Jerry Shroyer (503) 266-6745, or Ted Swensen (503) 293-1468 Held at Alder Creek Middle School (off Hwy 224, I-205 Exit 13)
