Thanks Bass all the feedback I received from last years meeting was positive and I wanted to continue, hoping to get more this year. The park idea covers alot of issues we ran into the first meeting. Parking is not a problem, food can be brought and cooked in the park the families can have a picnic style lunch. There are pavilions to protect us from the weather should it turn nasty. We also wanted to have a chinese auction style scion swap everyone that brings scion would be eligible for the auction. We were looking at several parks in the south / central jersey area allowing other members an opportuninty to attend that could not make last years event and meet fellow members and exchange information.
Bring your rooted cuttings, scion, trees, set up trades, swaps, or sales. Most of all come out for our lectures and free information. We wanted to do two lectures one on rooting techniques and one on spring pruning. Let us know what you want to see, hear, or do and we will try to make it work. Remember this is the plannig stages so shoot your ideas.
