What are the types of serviceberries? I just planted a Allegheny.
Do you have deer? Any problems with them pruning the little trees?
You have done a beautiful job of building your forests! Amazing transformation!

We have Saskatoon, Allegheny, and Apple. :) We do have deer. They have not been an issue. Thank you for the compliment! I'll do another video once everything wakes up so you can see it when it is full. :) Plus at that time is when we plant out the orchard floor with all sorts of goodies. It's going to be so full this year. I've already begun planting. :)
In a way I envy you the long growing season you have. But then, I most certainly do not envy you the upper 80's temps in April! :))
You may have said where you got all your trees and shrubs, but I don't recall. Please can you tell us again?
In the beginning, I didn't have any specific place...I'd pick up trees locally at local farms, swap/barter/trade, I'd get clippings to root, etc. purchased a few online from Fast Growing Trees or Starks Bro, but now I have a nursery license (we are now officially a state-certified nursery) and so I buy from a private wholesale certified natural greenhouse that I've worked a deal out with. I sell plants, trees, seeds, etc here at our homestead from wholesale purchases and from our own starting (rooted clippings, seed, etc).
Ahhhh, ok. Cool you can sell now. :))
