Wagon Wheel Orchard

Just outside of Gardner, Kansas, is the farm of Rick and Susie Godsil. Along with their four children, they run Wagon Wheel Farm. It's a u-pick operation with quite a bit of biodiversity. There may be more apples varieties growing on their place than in all the rest of the state. And what makes a visit to their farm so special to me is (not just the good fruit) but that Nick Botner and I sent a huge order of scion wood to them this spring. Imagine that. Not only did I get to send them grafting wood but I also got to see it happily growing. It really makes all that work in the spring seem worthwhile. Way to go you guys. Keep up the good work.
