Just adding some more insight into the bare-root season.

Trees are grown closely in fields. Once they have dropped their leaves in mid-late autumn, the wholesale grower will dig up each variety, sort them for size and bundle them in lots of five. Once bundled, they are stored in holding bays.

















It's a huge and messy job, the staff dress in full wet gear to keep warm and dry.



They are then loaded into trucks and shipped all over the country.





It's then up to us to label each tree.



This is my 17th of doing the bare-root season.
