Sorry to hear of your troubles, Jarred. I hadn't read this thread until now since I saw it was for local plant sales. I can understand your concerns; I pulled my 7 acre pear orchard shortly after our son was born because of concerns over pesticides around our home. The economics of growing them organically just did not pencil out.

Best wishes,

Harvey

I did that to my daughter, OMG it was so frightening. But she is fine and very smart. Glad she doesn't remember it.

Am a newby to this group, In Memphis. Delighted to see other Tenn, Ark. and
Ala. people!!! Basjoos are coming back here. I've not had enuf nerve yet to put out
a lasiocarpa and leave all winter. Although know man in Helena, Ark. who does
that, successfully. Velutina does not survive overwinter in the ground for me.

So did you manage to get another house yet? Thats a shame you had to leave 2 acres on the water. But, on the bright side, at least you dont have to worry bout gators as much now!
