Re: [nafex] nafex Digest, Vol 232, Issue 5

Vintage Virginia Apples - VA
Big Horse Creek Farm - NC
Johnson Nursery in Ellijay, GA

All above offer at least some heirloom fruit varieties.
First two have had good reputations among NAFExers through the years.
I've never bought from Johnson, but know of no negatives... but I've not
researched any nurseries in years.

Re: [nafex] nafex Digest, Vol 232, Issue 5

I second the recommendation of Cummins nursery, which with with Cornell to sell the rootstocks developed there, as well as a wide range of cultivars.

I've also had good experiences with St. Lawrence nurseries.

Re: [nafex] nafex Digest, Vol 232, Issue 5

Hi Lori,
David Vernon at Century Farm in northern NC has preserved Lee Calhoun's
heirloom collection that Lee collected from throughout the south. Not
all are southern apple. For example, David offers Roxbury Russet, a 17th
century apple from Massachusetts.
See: https://www.centuryfarmorchards.com/

I have bought multiple trees from David and also have ordered custom
grafted trees from a variety I found on a new land purchase that I
wished to preserve. I have had a very good experience with David and his
trees.

Good luck on planting out your new place!

Elizabeth Hilborn

Re: [nafex] nafex Digest, Vol 232, Issue 5

Eastern nurseries with heirlooms. Cummins and ACN are on the east and
carry some heirlooms- Cummins quite a few. However there is a nursery in
VA run by a member or former member of NAFEX that I can't remember the name
of.

For a forum well suited to answer such questions. I recommend
growingfruit.org. They have a nursery list available and also members not
far from you.

Than there is the Arkansas Black which has great flavor. A local store
carried these for a few years and I was able to sample the variety.

I have no idea, would have to Google or DuckDuckGo it for more info. Its
Tibetan, part of their heritage, food production systems and culture
and will survive any and all Chinese obstruction.

Re: [nafex] This is the black diamond apple. Grown in the mountains of Tibet.

Hi all,
I finally was able to settle on6 acres in Rhode Island and want to start planting my fruit trees. My first will be a wild russet from a NAFEX member in Vermont I have personally carried in my car from Boston to Plymouth, MA, to Oregon and now back to Coventry, RI - so now I want to buy a few other trees.

Any suggestions for nurseries in MA, CT, or RI where I could get good sized trees - otherwise, online nurseries that carry heirlooms and varieties such as Crispin...does Cornell ever sell? I've considered Raintree.

Thanks,
Lori

Re: [nafex] This is the black diamond apple. Grown in the mountains of Tibet.

This story goes viral evry so often, mostly due to the photos. From what I
can see, it seems to be a particularly dark sport of 'Red Delicious', so
unless some amazing taste/texture mutations happened as well, I'd say it
probably doesn't taste like much.
