Trees
We offer bench grafts for apple and pear varieties that grow well in Northern Maine. Bench grafting is a process where a cutting from a parent tree is grafted to a root. The grafts are produced sitting at a workbench, thus, the term bench graft. This allows the grower to “clone” a desirable variety by grafting it to a healthy disease-resistant rootstock. The typical potted tree has been grafted and grown out for 2-3 years. There is an advantage to a consumer if you buy the bench graft and grow it out yourself. It costs less than a potted tree and is easy to plant, and transport. Most of all you have access to more varieties than you’ll ever see in a store.
We now offer 1 and two-year-old apple trees for most varieties listed on our site.
All grafts are $15
Bare Root Trees $25
