Last year “, Integration acres farm” was selling fruit, at the fest.
Lots of people were carrying around bags of Pawpaw fruit they had purchased. I don’t know how their crop is this year.

Awesome looking trees @Hillbillyhort! We are hoping to make it out there to support your efforts again this year. :slightly_smiling_face: Your trees have done very well on our property, they are among some of the best … and we have trees from a lot of different “popular” nurseries. Keep up the hard work, it’s much appreciated! :slightly_smiling_face:

I am planning to be there.
I won’t have as many large grafted trees as last year.
No grafted persimmons this year, ( they were planted here on the farm this year )
If I can get a load together I will be there.
Hope to meet some of Our members there !
