Hello Dear Friends!
We are currently working to establish Community Fruit Tree Nurseries around Turtle Island (The United States). Our goal is to establish nurseries where we grow and ship tens of thousands of trees from.
Our grants and trees by mail programs are on pause so that we can put our effort into establishing the Community Fruit Tree Nurseries.
Please feel free to fill out this waiting list and we will email when we have trees available.
We hope to have trees available fall of 2024.
UPDATE Fall 2024
Our first two experimental beds for the Community Fruit Tree Project are officially ready to be planted! We chose persimmons and chestnuts, two of the most productive and delicious, food producing trees for the Mid Atlantic. These trees are ready to be picked up from Plant Path Nursery in Knoxville, Maryland and planted in the ground in the greater DC Metro area this fall (before the ground freezes) or in spring 2025. Contact Eric Joseph Lewis to pick up trees. (240-482-9352 or Eric@PlantPath.org)
The trees are offered in the gift economy. They are free to all who would benefit and are not in a financial situation to donate. Donations are deeply appreciated by those who have the funds. Donations can be made here. (Please make a note that the donation is for Community Fruit Trees)
Note: These are bare root, one year old trees. They are about pencil thick and very small, so they can be transported in any vehicle.
