This.
Plus this.
Will someday create a bunch of apples for me and the wildlife.

Looks like you've got some work to do. Where do you buy you root stock and scions?

The rootstock came from Cummins Nursery. The scion came from many sources, Big Horse Creek Farm, Hocking Hills Orchard, Fedco, and I traded scion with many people on several internet boards.

My apple trees are free. I feed the Deer plenty of apples, and you never know where an apple tree will pop up on the farm. Honestly, I'm still discovering trees from years ago, and day-lighting them when I do. Most of my farm is so thick though, I have to take the short window when they blossom out, to be able to identify and mark them.

Nice problem to have.
I have been finding a number of apple trees coming up on my lease, from seed.
Yes, Potter County, where the deer eat everything to the ground, according to some misinformed people.

My 85 yo father-in-law makes the trip up from Va. Beach a couple times a year. God bless him, but in the fall, he stops in "apple country" of Va, and feels the need to continue his journey loaded down with 1,358 lbs. of apples. We eat a couple of pounds, and the rest go to the Deer.
