Important news about England's Nursery for 2021 and 2022

Any updates from Cliff? I tried looking for him on facebook, but I’m not really a facebook person and had no luck

I just talked to him not too long ago. My record shows 3/3

I received scion wood from him a few days ago. They aren’t shipping trees that I know of, but seed and scion is still available. Of course, a lot of stuff gets sold out quickly as well, so I’d suggest putting in scion requests in September or October next year if you have specific varieties you’re chasing.

I believe his wife and son are helping out a lot. I’m glad to see they are keeping things going and sharing these wonderful varieties.

He replied pretty quickly for me, too, last week. I didn’t know him in his hayday, or even know who he was when I visited the orchard a couple years ago when he was making the decision to slow down. It took less than five minutes to know he was both brilliant and humble.
It’s worth looking through his list of cultivars on the farm map, as there is a lot there. Some with older names and a lot unlikely to be available in many places.
A youtbe series of his methods would be fabulous.
