I am really getting into the role that apple trees are playing on my new farm. They are zero maintenance long-term food sources that my deer seem to love! With that in mind, I am going to keep learning. My next step is to start grafting commercial apple varieties into a few of my wild trees. The deer won't care, but now we can get the best tasting apples for human consumption built on the foundation of these super hardy wild trees.
In this episode, Dr. Jesse Randall (now with Michigan State University) discusses how to graft your own apple trees and save tons of money compared to ready-grown nursery trees. You don't need much, just some EMLA 7 root stock that you can order online and cuttings of fresh growth (called scion wood) from a tree you want to clone. You can buy the scion wood online too, like I am doing. It is a simple process; you can make a lot of trees for the cost of just one nursey bought tree. It is the fun and affordable way to create your own Poor Man's Orchard.
