Sorry for the late notice, but this Saturday you won't want to miss a chance to have a garden full of fruit for free. And your kids (or all the neighbors' kids) will love you for it. The Home Orchard Society is having a Fruit & Berry Cuttings (Scion) Exchange that will feature hundreds of free fruit-tree cuttings and grafting help, as well as rootstocks, plants, grafting books and mason bees available for purchase.If you've thought about walking out the door in the morning and picking a sun-warmed peach off the tree or gathering some dewy berries for your cereal, this is the event for you.
Details: Home Orchard Society Fruit & Berry Cuttings (Scion) Exchange. Sat., Mar. 10; 10 am-4 pm; $6/person, $10/family. Alder Creek Middle School, 13801 SE Webster Rd. at Hwy. 224, Milwaukie.

Hi Kathleen,
Other Kathleen's hubby here. I've been raising mason bees for years now -- maybe it's time to give them some scions. Thanks for the tip!
Hey, great to hear from you!
The Home Orchard folks are supposed to be a great group. We have a friend who's been involved with them for years and says they're very welcoming and are great for advice. Should be fun!
