Who We Are

I provide seed, seedlings, grafted plants, field grafting services, and consulting. Email or call to make a request. See our Variety List for more on what we offer.

I focus on American Persimmon, Shagbark and shagbark hybrids with Yellowbud, and Honey Locust.

I also propagate Black Walnut and Mulberry. I can always provide plants/seeds of Black and Red Raspberry, Strawberry, Flour Corn, and Storage Squash among other things.

The nursery is zone 4b on very fertile clay soils on flat ground. Breeding grounds are on a South slope in zone 4b on clay loam.

If you would like to join in the search or share a selection for the next best varieties of Shagbark, Bitternut, Oak, and Black Walnut, give me a ring and let's get after it!

I am willing to ship plants to any state touching WI. Will provide scion outside to breeders. I only specialize in plants suited zone 4a to zone 5a for upper midwest.
