We know that starting or expanding an orchard is incredibly exciting and fulfilling, but can also be a little daunting and certainly a lot of work. There are many things to consider whether you are planting a small hobby orchard, cider orchard or a large commercial planting. Making the right choices in the planning stages and early years of an orchard can save you a lot of work down the road.
This is why we offer a variety of consulting services for those seeking advice in the establishment or expansion of their orchard. Our areas of consulting include (but are not limited to): variety and rootstock selection, orchard design, organic pest management and pruning of mature and new orchards. Chris Negronida has a background in biology and over 20 years experience in orchards and 10 years experience in organic orchard management.
We also offer custom pruning services for backyard fruit trees and small orchards within a 50 mile radius of Ithaca, NY.
