Betsy,
What size are your cherries? That is the size to use if you want to
fool the birds.

Re: [nafex] Saving cherries from the birds (Good Fruit Grower)
We have a store here in Pequot lakes, MN called Weise Clothing but I
have yet to see any clothing there. They have stuff that I've seen nowhere
else. The part of the store that we are concerned stocks beads of many
shapes, sizes, colors, made of various materials and findings (stuff to make
jewelry). Might one call it a "hobby shop"? If we didn't have that store,
I would Goggle "plastic beads for crafts."

[nafex] My standard scion wood offer
Gang,
Each year I try and extend the same generosity so many have shown to me, to others.
So without further ado, my standard offer.
Pears
-----
Harrow Sweet
Harvest Queen
Warren
Potomac
Apples
------
Liberty
Dayton
If you are desperate for something else in terms of apples I may have enough wood for a single scion of a few heritage apples(most of my apples are on M27 and espalier, hence they push almost no wood).
Let me know if you are desirous of a scion or two.
the fluffy one
