This is an excellent primer for those wishing to delve into the world of fruit tree grafting, whether you wish to start new trees or to switch old established trees over to new varieties.

Please Note: The hands on class that will take place earlier in the morning (From 10:00-1:00) is FULL. Please let me know if you are interested in a 3 hour hands on grafting class. If there is adequate interest I would be happy to try organizing a second class in the near future.
