I’m in the northeast and had a bunch of pear trees on my property when I purchased it. They were the standard Lowe’s varieties and none did very well. I had some Bradford pears pop up an id typically leave them for a year for added flowers for the bees. A couple years ago I grafted my fruit pears onto a couple trees and it’s been great. What are your favorite things to graft?

I found a 1 acre or so plot to construct an urban perennial garden. I was going to create some fruit tree guilds, peaches, cherries, plums

The Labor Environment Action Network says it won’t ‘sugar coat’ its reaction after working ‘so hard’ on obtaining commitment for EPA
