[nafex] St, Lawrence Nurseries

St. Lawrence Nurseries is alive!

Bill MacKentley announced last year that he was retiring, and that the nursery would be closing in the spring of 2015 for lack of a successor. So I was surprised to get a mailing from them a couple of days ago. The mailing says that Connor Hardiman, who used to work there, will be taking over. For this next season they'll have only apple trees and Bali cherry, and orders need to be in for next spring by October 30 of this year; but he's expecting, if I understand it correctly, to gradually get back to a more normal range of offerings.

For those who don't know, St. Lawrence specializes in very cold-hardy fruit and nut trees -- as in, hardy to 30º to 50º below zero F. They're at http://www.sln.potsdam.ny.us/ -- though I see that the page hasn't been updated and still only mentions the retirement.
